Defense Express showed a picture of the wreckage of the Kh-47M2 Kinzhal missile, which Russia used to try and hit Kyiv on the night of May 4. If confirmed, it will be the first successful interception of this hypersonic missile.

“The Ukrainian air defense troops likely shot down a Russian Kh-47 Kinzhal, a so-called “hyper-sonic” missile on May 4, probably using the newly delivered Patriot PAC-3 unit. The remnants of a downed missile point to that missile type.”

“Prigozhin shares graphic video of Wagner fighters killed today, with the most furious message he has yet directed personally at Shoigu and Gerasimov. “Shoigu! Gerasimov! Where are the fucking shells!””

When a hypersonic missile is enroute at 80,000+ feet, there is nothing that can shoot it down.
However, at some point, the missile has to descend and point at the target.
If there is a Patriot missile battery at or near the target, then the Patriot site can certainly intercept and destroy the hypersonic missile.
An analogy would be hunting geese with a shotgun.
If the geese are overflying your field at 500 feet, there is no way to hit them with a shotgun.
However, if they decide to land near your blind, then you most certainly can take them out with your shotgun.
The big unknown WRT Patriots and hypersonic missiles is: How close to the target does the Patriot site need to be located?
