Overnight, Moscow's missile and drone strikes have resulted in power cuts in multiple districts of Ukraine's capital, the Ukrainian capital.
A number of civilians were wounded while residents in the city's east were plunged into darkness and dealt with problems to water systems, as stated by municipal leaders.
Simultaneously, a minor was lost their life in a different Russian drone strike in the southeastern region in the country's south-east, as reported by regional authorities.
Moscow has escalated attacks on power infrastructure over recent weeks, while officials has called for "concrete actions" from allies to increase pressure on Russia.
"What is required is not superficial actions but decisive action - from the America, European nations and the G7 - in providing protection systems and implementing sanctions," he wrote in a social media post.
He said that numerous aerial vehicles and more than 30 rockets attacked energy facilities, describing such strikes as "strategic and deliberate" and against "critical infrastructure" as the weather cools.
Energy officials said Russia was "conducting extensive attacks" and maintenance teams were working to repair systems.
A series of attacks struck electrical systems and civilian homes in the capital.
Several of the people hurt in the strikes on the capital have been transported for medical care, per statements from municipal representatives.
Area administrators said the city endured significant strikes overnight. A young boy lost their life and three other people were hurt.
The assaults follow evenings of bombing campaigns in the area, portions of which remain under the control of Moscow's military.
