During the night, Moscow's missile and drone strikes have caused power cuts in multiple districts of Ukraine's capital, the Ukrainian capital.
Nine people were injured while residents in eastern districts were left without electricity and faced disruption to water supplies, as stated by city officials.
At the same time, a minor was fatally injured in a separate aerial attack in the Zaporizhzhia area in the southern area, according to area administrators.
Moscow has increased strikes on power infrastructure over recent weeks, while the country's government has requested "concrete actions" from international partners to increase pressure on Russia.
"The necessity is not superficial actions but strong steps - from the US, Europe and the Group of Seven - in providing protection systems and enforcing sanctions," mentioned in a public message.
Authorities reported that numerous aerial vehicles and several dozen rockets attacked the country's power systems, labeling such attacks as "strategic and deliberate" and against "critical infrastructure" as temperatures become colder.
Energy officials said Russia was "launching a major assault" and technical staff were striving to repair systems.
A wave of strikes struck energy infrastructure and civilian homes in the capital.
Five out of the nine people injured in the strikes on the city have been hospitalized, as confirmed by local officials.
Local officials said the urban area experienced intense attacks during nighttime hours. A young boy was killed and several individuals were hurt.
The attacks follow evenings of aerial attacks in the territory, sections of which are occupied by invading troops.
The whole nation is on alert for sophisticated projectile assaults, which are harder to detect.
Authorities told journalists that Moscow was deliberately attempting to damage the country's energy grid, with assaults already affecting gas facilities.
Authorities confirmed technical personnel and government agencies were preparing for further attacks.
