During the night, Moscow's missile and drone strikes have resulted in electricity outages in extensive areas of Ukraine's capital, Kyiv.
Nine people were wounded while residents in eastern districts were plunged into darkness and encountered problems to water systems, as stated by city officials.
At the same time, a minor was fatally injured in a distinct aerial attack in the Zaporizhzhia area in the country's south-east, as reported by local officials.
Moscow has intensified assaults on energy facilities over recent weeks, while Ukrainian leadership has called for "real steps" from allies to apply pressure on Moscow.
"What is required is not window dressing but firm measures - from the America, European nations and the G7 - in delivering defensive weapons and applying sanctions," he wrote in a online statement.
Authorities reported that 450 drones and more than 30 projectiles attacked energy facilities, labeling such strikes as "strategic and deliberate" and against "everything that sustains normal life" as temperatures become colder.
Government representatives said Russia was "conducting extensive attacks" and repair crews were striving to restore power.
A barrage of missiles struck energy infrastructure and residential structures in the capital.
Multiple people hurt in the attacks on the city have been transported for medical care, per statements from city authorities.
Regional authorities said the city endured significant strikes throughout the evening. A young boy lost their life and multiple civilians were injured.
The strikes succeed evenings of air raids in the region, portions of which are occupied by Moscow's military.
All of Ukraine is in a state of readiness for hypersonic Kinzhal missile strikes, which are more difficult to spot.
Authorities told the media that Moscow was deliberately attempting to damage the country's energy grid, with attacks already disrupting gas facilities.
Officials stated utility staff and government agencies were preparing for more assaults.
