Overnight, Moscow's missile and drone strikes have led to electricity outages in multiple districts of the capital city, the Ukrainian capital.
Nine people were hurt while inhabitants in the city's east were experienced blackouts and faced problems to water supplies, per reports from local authorities.
At the same time, a seven-year-old child was lost their life in a separate Russian drone strike in the southeastern region in the southeastern part, as reported by regional authorities.
Moscow has escalated assaults on energy facilities over recent weeks, while the country's government has demanded "real steps" from partner nations to apply pressure on Russia.
"What is required is not superficial actions but strong steps - from the US, the EU and the major economies - in delivering defensive weapons and enforcing penalties," he wrote in a social media post.
Authorities reported that hundreds of unmanned aircraft and more than 30 missiles struck the country's power systems, characterizing such assaults as "cynical and calculated" and against "everything that sustains normal life" as temperatures become colder.
Government representatives said Moscow was "launching a major assault" and maintenance teams were laboring to fix the damage.
A series of attacks hit power facilities and residential structures in Kyiv.
Multiple people hurt in the attacks on the capital have been hospitalized, according to local officials.
Local officials said the urban area experienced significant strikes overnight. A seven-year-old child was killed and multiple civilians were hurt.
The assaults succeed evenings of bombing campaigns in the region, parts of which remain under the control of Moscow's military.
The whole nation is in a state of readiness for hypersonic Kinzhal missile strikes, which are tougher to identify.
Government officials told the media that Moscow was purposely seeking to damage the country's energy grid, with attacks already disrupting gas facilities.
Authorities confirmed technical personnel and government agencies were bracing for more assaults.
