TL;DR Summary

Videos on social media allegedly showing Ukrainian forces downing Russia's hypersonic Kinzhal missile in Kyiv have been debunked by Ukrainian air defense, which said it downed its own drone after it lost control over Kyiv. The suggestion that this video footage is of a Russian missile being shot down has been debunked. The missile attacks happened in the early hours of the morning, and Ukraine's Defense Express outlet initially reported that Ukrainian forces had successfully shot down and destroyed all enemy missiles from the Thursday attack at 2:40 a.m. local time, including the "hypersonic" Kh-47 "Kinzhal" Dagger missile, a missile that has previously been deemed unbeatable by Russia.
