During the night, Moscow's missile and drone strikes have resulted in power cuts in large parts of Ukraine's capital, the Ukrainian capital.
Nine people were injured while residents in eastern neighborhoods were left without electricity and encountered problems to drinking water, as stated by municipal leaders.
Meanwhile, a young boy was lost their life in a different aerial attack in the Zaporizhzhia region in the southern area, according to local officials.
Moscow has intensified attacks on power infrastructure over the past few days, while the country's government has requested "substantial measures" from partner nations to exert influence on Russia.
"What is required is not window dressing but decisive action - from the America, European nations and the Group of Seven - in supplying defensive weapons and implementing penalties," was stated in a online statement.
Officials stated that 450 drones and over thirty projectiles attacked Ukraine's energy infrastructure, describing such assaults as "strategic and deliberate" and against "essential services" as temperatures become colder.
Energy officials said Moscow was "inflicting a massive strike" and maintenance teams were striving to fix the damage.
A barrage of missiles damaged electrical systems and civilian homes in the capital.
Multiple people hurt in the attacks on the capital have been hospitalized, per statements from city authorities.
Local officials said the city experienced intense attacks throughout the evening. A minor was killed and several individuals were hurt.
The strikes succeed nights of aerial attacks in the area, sections of which are occupied by Moscow's military.
The entire country is on alert for hypersonic Kinzhal missile strikes, which are harder to spot.
Authorities told the media that Russia was intentionally trying to destroy the national power system, with strikes already disrupting fuel infrastructure.
Officials stated technical personnel and officials were bracing for more assaults.
