MacBook is broken (alien.top)

Opened the back cover to clean the fans

Once I put the back cover on it wouldn’t click in so I applied a bit of force and something must’ve broke because there was white smoke coming out for a few seconds and a nasty burning smell

So now the back cover still isn’t clicked in, and the whole MacBook is not working either…

Sounds like a ruptured battery?
