During the night, Moscow's missile and drone strikes have led to power cuts in extensive areas of Ukraine's capital, Kyiv.
Nine people were injured while residents in the city's east were left without electricity and faced problems to water supplies, as stated by local authorities.
Meanwhile, a young boy was killed in a different aerial attack in the southeastern region in the country's south-east, as reported by local officials.
Moscow has intensified attacks on power infrastructure over the last fortnight, while Ukrainian leadership has requested "concrete actions" from allies to apply pressure on Moscow.
"The necessity is not window dressing but strong steps - from the United States, Europe and the G7 - in delivering air defence systems and implementing sanctions," mentioned in a social media post.
Authorities reported that numerous aerial vehicles and several dozen rockets attacked energy facilities, describing such attacks as "strategic and deliberate" and against "essential services" as winter approaches.
The energy minister said Russia was "inflicting a massive strike" and maintenance teams were laboring to fix the damage.
A barrage of missiles struck energy infrastructure and apartment buildings in Kyiv.
Several of the people wounded in the strikes on the capital have been transported for medical care, per statements from municipal representatives.
Local officials said the urban area came under intense attacks throughout the evening. A young boy lost their life and multiple civilians were injured.
The attacks succeed evenings of bombing campaigns in the region, portions of which remain under the control of Moscow's military.
The entire country is under warning for advanced weapon attacks, which are tougher to spot.
National leaders told reporters that Moscow was intentionally trying to damage the national power system, with assaults already disrupting energy systems.
Officials stated utility staff and officials were anticipating additional strikes.
