Hmm...

Cargo items get waxed first - things like weapon platforms, satellites, mines, etc. Until these are destroyed there will be no facility/population damage. After that...both facilities and population are damaged. The amount of damage done to facilities depends largely upon the size of the population - a highly populated planet will take more damage before facilities are destroyed while a largely unpopulated planet will go right up in smoke. Of course...there are specialized weapons that damage only certain facilities or population or value.
