I've always seriously doubted Ukraine shooting down any "hypersonic" missiles. The problem is not solvable. Hypersonic missiles are really just manuevering ballistic missiles, and its impossible to plot an intercept path unless you have a really really big explosion. Missile defense is done, along with large military assets like surface ships.

It shot down what is claimed to be "hypersonic" missle by russians. I don't know about "kinzhal" speeds, but the rockets are indeed was shot down a bunch of times. Speaking about "cyrcon" missiles, they do travel at the hypersonic speed but slowing down at the last miles of trajectory and can (and was) shot down too.
