Quite a bit locally, but since the number of flights is small, the total world wide impact is small compared to airline traffic.

convinced,rockets, jet liners, vehicles, assorted those guy-made issues which produce fumes, damage the ozone layer. maximum apparently, cows and buffaloes too damage the ozone through emitting methane as a fart at the same time as digesting nutrients. Ants also are smaller culprits because the 'language' they frequently use for interaction is an 'acid language' which produce SO2 and SO3 after reacting with different aspects.

Rocket engines do not produce ozone depleting chemicals. depending on their chemistry they may actually increase it.
The air conditioned offices & cars of the ground-staff on might if they have not been properly updated.
The bigger, separate, problem is the amount of greenhouse gasses produced by the whole programme. eg flying parts across continents, just to save jobs/votes in key constituencies.
Rockets & jets may mitigate climate change by putting out high-altitude "sun shield" - see global dimming.

The ozone is ONLY deleated by cfc's (Chloro Floro Carbons).
Rockets fireing into orbit pose no threat to our ozone layer.

There is probably more pollution from combustion than there is damage to the ozone layer. I wouldn't worry about it.

Almost none, on a global scale.
