Throughout the evening, Moscow's missile and drone strikes have resulted in electricity outages in multiple districts of the capital city, the Ukrainian capital.
Several individuals were hurt while inhabitants in the city's east were plunged into darkness and faced disruption to drinking water, per reports from local authorities.
Meanwhile, a young boy was killed in a distinct assault in the Zaporizhzhia area in the southeastern part, according to regional authorities.
Moscow has increased attacks on power infrastructure over recent weeks, while Ukrainian leadership has demanded "substantial measures" from partner nations to apply pressure on Russia.
"The necessity is not superficial actions but strong steps - from the America, the EU and the major economies - in providing protection systems and enforcing penalties," was stated in a public message.
Officials stated that numerous aerial vehicles and more than 30 projectiles targeted Ukraine's energy infrastructure, labeling such attacks as "premeditated" and against "critical infrastructure" as temperatures become colder.
The energy minister said Moscow was "conducting extensive attacks" and repair crews were laboring to fix the damage.
A series of attacks damaged energy infrastructure and apartment buildings in the capital.
Multiple people hurt in the strikes on the capital have been taken to hospital, according to municipal representatives.
Local officials said the city came under intense attacks throughout the evening. A minor died and several individuals were injured.
The strikes follow nights of aerial attacks in the territory, sections of which are currently controlled by Russian forces.
The entire country is under warning for hypersonic Kinzhal missile strikes, which are more difficult to spot.
National leaders told journalists that Moscow was deliberately attempting to demolish the national power system, with strikes already disrupting energy systems.
Officials stated energy workers and government agencies were anticipating further attacks.
