During the night, Moscow's missile and drone strikes have led to power cuts in extensive areas of Ukraine's capital, the Ukrainian capital.
Nine people were hurt while inhabitants in eastern neighborhoods were plunged into darkness and encountered interruptions to water supplies, as stated by city officials.
At the same time, a young boy was lost their life in a different Russian drone strike in the Zaporizhzhia area in the southern area, according to area administrators.
Moscow has escalated attacks on electrical systems over recent weeks, while Ukrainian leadership has called for "concrete actions" from international partners to increase pressure on Moscow.
"What's needed is not superficial actions but firm measures - from the US, European nations and the G7 - in supplying defensive weapons and applying penalties," mentioned in a public message.
Officials stated that hundreds of unmanned aircraft and over thirty missiles attacked Ukraine's energy infrastructure, characterizing such attacks as "premeditated" and against "essential services" as the weather cools.
Energy officials said Moscow was "conducting extensive attacks" and repair crews were working to fix the damage.
A barrage of missiles hit energy infrastructure and civilian homes in Kyiv.
Multiple people hurt in the strikes on the capital have been taken to hospital, according to local officials.
Area administrators said the metropolitan region came under significant strikes during nighttime hours. A minor lost their life and three other people were hurt.
The assaults follow evenings of aerial attacks in the area, parts of which are currently controlled by invading troops.
The entire country is in a state of readiness for sophisticated projectile assaults, which are more difficult to detect.
Authorities told the media that Moscow was deliberately attempting to demolish the country's energy grid, with attacks already impacting fuel infrastructure.
He said technical personnel and authorities were preparing for further attacks.
