During the night, Moscow's aerial assaults have resulted in blackouts in multiple districts of Ukraine's capital, Kyiv.
Nine people were wounded while inhabitants in the city's east were left without electricity and dealt with disruption to drinking water, as stated by local authorities.
At the same time, a young boy was fatally injured in a distinct Russian drone strike in the southeastern region in the country's south-east, as reported by area administrators.
Moscow has intensified strikes on power infrastructure over the last fortnight, while officials has requested "concrete actions" from international partners to increase pressure on Russia.
"What is required is not symbolic gestures but decisive action - from the America, the EU and the Group of Seven - in supplying air defence systems and applying penalties," was stated in a online statement.
Officials stated that 450 drones and over thirty missiles targeted Ukraine's energy infrastructure, labeling such strikes as "premeditated" and against "critical infrastructure" as temperatures become colder.
The energy minister said Moscow was "conducting extensive attacks" and maintenance teams were striving to repair systems.
A series of attacks damaged energy infrastructure and apartment buildings in the capital.
Several of the people wounded in the assaults on the city have been taken to hospital, as confirmed by municipal representatives.
Regional authorities said the city came under significant strikes throughout the evening. A minor was killed and multiple civilians were hurt.
The strikes follow periods of bombing campaigns in the region, sections of which are currently controlled by Moscow's military.
All of Ukraine is on alert for advanced weapon attacks, which are more difficult to spot.
Authorities told the media that Moscow was deliberately attempting to demolish the electrical infrastructure, with assaults already impacting gas facilities.
Officials stated utility staff and government agencies were bracing for more assaults.
