Not all the time, in most of my test the squip or the bridgewire that heats up the pyrogen will remain intact, the only time the it is broken is when the wire is blown away from the explosion or the force of the blast rips it out.
I have some bridge wire test here

The second clip show high voltage 200vdc hitting the bridge wire move that once and the bridgewire is still intact.
