Throughout the evening, Moscow's missile and drone strikes have led to electricity outages in large parts of Ukraine's capital, the Ukrainian capital.
Nine people were wounded while local people in eastern neighborhoods were experienced blackouts and faced problems to drinking water, per reports from local authorities.
At the same time, a young boy was killed in a different Russian drone strike in the Zaporizhzhia region in the southern area, based on information from area administrators.
Moscow has escalated strikes on energy facilities over recent weeks, while the country's government has demanded "concrete actions" from international partners to exert influence on Russia.
"What's needed is not symbolic gestures but strong steps - from the America, European nations and the G7 - in delivering air defence systems and implementing sanctions," he wrote in a online statement.
Authorities reported that 450 drones and several dozen missiles targeted the country's power systems, characterizing such attacks as "cynical and calculated" and against "everything that sustains normal life" as temperatures become colder.
Energy officials said Russia was "inflicting a massive strike" and maintenance teams were striving to restore power.
A barrage of missiles damaged electrical systems and residential structures in Kyiv.
Five out of the nine people hurt in the strikes on the capital have been taken to hospital, according to city authorities.
Area administrators said the metropolitan region experienced intense attacks overnight. A young boy died and several individuals were wounded.
The attacks come after periods of aerial attacks in the territory, parts of which are currently controlled by Russian forces.
The whole nation is in a state of readiness for advanced weapon attacks, which are tougher to spot.
Authorities told the media that Moscow was deliberately attempting to destroy the electrical infrastructure, with assaults already affecting fuel infrastructure.
He said technical personnel and officials were bracing for further attacks.
