Throughout the evening, Moscow's missile and drone strikes have caused electricity outages in large parts of the capital city, the Ukrainian capital.
A number of civilians were wounded while residents in eastern districts were experienced blackouts and dealt with problems to drinking water, per reports from city officials.
Simultaneously, a minor was fatally injured in a separate aerial attack in the Zaporizhzhia region in the country's south-east, based on information from area administrators.
Moscow has escalated attacks on energy facilities over the last fortnight, while the country's government has called for "substantial measures" from allies to exert influence on Moscow.
"The necessity is not superficial actions but firm measures - from the US, Europe and the major economies - in supplying defensive weapons and implementing sanctions," was stated in a online statement.
Authorities reported that numerous aerial vehicles and several dozen rockets struck the country's power systems, labeling such strikes as "premeditated" and against "essential services" as temperatures become colder.
Energy officials said Moscow was "launching a major assault" and technical staff were laboring to repair systems.
A series of attacks hit power facilities and apartment buildings in the capital.
Several of the people injured in the strikes on the capital have been transported for medical care, as confirmed by city authorities.
Area administrators said the metropolitan region came under significant strikes overnight. A minor died and multiple civilians were injured.
The strikes follow evenings of air raids in the territory, parts of which remain under the control of invading troops.
