Throughout the evening, Moscow's missile and drone strikes have resulted in blackouts in large parts of the capital city, the Ukrainian capital.
Nine people were hurt while inhabitants in eastern districts were left without electricity and dealt with disruption to water systems, per reports from local authorities.
Meanwhile, a seven-year-old child was killed in a separate assault in the Zaporizhzhia region in the southeastern part, according to area administrators.
Moscow has escalated attacks on energy facilities over the last fortnight, while officials has requested "concrete actions" from international partners to exert influence on Moscow.
"What is required is not window dressing but firm measures - from the United States, the EU and the Group of Seven - in supplying defensive weapons and implementing sanctions," was stated in a public message.
Authorities reported that hundreds of unmanned aircraft and several dozen rockets targeted the country's power systems, labeling such strikes as "cynical and calculated" and against "essential services" as temperatures become colder.
The energy minister said Russia was "launching a major assault" and maintenance teams were laboring to fix the damage.
A wave of strikes struck energy infrastructure and apartment buildings in the capital.
Several of the people wounded in the strikes on the city have been transported for medical care, according to local officials.
Regional authorities said the metropolitan region came under significant strikes overnight. A minor lost their life and multiple civilians were hurt.
The strikes follow nights of bombing campaigns in the area, parts of which remain under the control of Moscow's military.
All of Ukraine is in a state of readiness for hypersonic Kinzhal missile strikes, which are tougher to identify.
Authorities told journalists that Russia was deliberately attempting to demolish the electrical infrastructure, with attacks already affecting fuel infrastructure.
Officials stated utility staff and government agencies were bracing for further attacks.
