I think I need to become far more informed about these matters as this is rather surprising to read.

I’ve been watching Russia toddle about with their “second best in the world” equipment, demonstrating how difficult it can be. And now I’m reading that Houthi rebels have missiles that can make it outside some meaningful definition of “atmosphere”?

Maybe I’m failing to understand how modern military rocketry works.

A little poking around says that the missile used was https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ghadr-110 and the Wikipedia entry has even been updated with a one-sentence mention of this interception.
