Overnight, Moscow's missile and drone strikes have caused power cuts in multiple districts of Ukraine's capital, the Ukrainian capital.
A number of civilians were injured while residents in eastern districts were left without electricity and faced problems to drinking water, per reports from local authorities.
At the same time, a seven-year-old child was fatally injured in a distinct aerial attack in the southeastern region in the southern area, as reported by regional authorities.
Moscow has increased strikes on power infrastructure over the past few days, while the country's government has requested "real steps" from international partners to apply pressure on Russia.
"What's needed is not superficial actions but strong steps - from the United States, the EU and the Group of Seven - in supplying air defence systems and implementing sanctions," mentioned in a social media post.
Officials stated that numerous aerial vehicles and over thirty projectiles struck energy facilities, labeling such assaults as "cynical and calculated" and against "critical infrastructure" as winter approaches.
Government representatives said Moscow was "conducting extensive attacks" and technical staff were laboring to restore power.
A wave of strikes hit electrical systems and civilian homes in Kyiv.
Multiple people injured in the attacks on the city have been hospitalized, as confirmed by city authorities.
Local officials said the city came under intense attacks overnight. A minor lost their life and multiple civilians were injured.
The assaults succeed nights of bombing campaigns in the area, sections of which remain under the control of Moscow's military.
The entire country is in a state of readiness for advanced weapon attacks, which are tougher to detect.
National leaders told journalists that Moscow was purposely seeking to destroy the electrical infrastructure, with strikes already impacting energy systems.
Authorities confirmed technical personnel and officials were anticipating more assaults.
