Overnight, Russian missile and drone strikes have resulted in electricity outages in multiple districts of Ukraine's capital, Kyiv.
A number of civilians were injured while inhabitants in eastern districts were left without electricity and dealt with problems to water supplies, as stated by municipal leaders.
Meanwhile, a minor was lost their life in a different assault in the Zaporizhzhia region in the southern area, as reported by regional authorities.
Moscow has intensified attacks on energy facilities over recent weeks, while the country's government has demanded "substantial measures" from international partners to apply pressure on Russia.
"What is required is not superficial actions but decisive action - from the United States, Europe and the Group of Seven - in supplying defensive weapons and applying sanctions," he wrote in a public message.
Officials stated that numerous aerial vehicles and over thirty projectiles attacked the country's power systems, labeling such strikes as "strategic and deliberate" and against "everything that sustains normal life" as the weather cools.
Government representatives said Russia was "conducting extensive attacks" and maintenance teams were working to restore power.
A barrage of missiles hit electrical systems and civilian homes in Kyiv.
Five out of the nine people wounded in the attacks on the capital have been transported for medical care, according to local officials.
Regional authorities said the metropolitan region came under significant strikes overnight. A young boy lost their life and multiple civilians were hurt.
The assaults follow nights of air raids in the territory, sections of which are occupied by Moscow's military.
The entire country is under warning for sophisticated projectile assaults, which are tougher to spot.
National leaders told the media that Moscow was purposely seeking to damage the electrical infrastructure, with attacks already disrupting energy systems.
Officials stated energy workers and authorities were preparing for additional strikes.
