Overnight, Moscow's missile and drone strikes have resulted in power cuts in large parts of Ukraine's capital, the Ukrainian capital.
Several individuals were injured while residents in eastern districts were left without electricity and encountered disruption to water supplies, according to local authorities.
At the same time, a young boy was fatally injured in a distinct assault in the Zaporizhzhia region in the southern area, according to regional authorities.
Moscow has increased strikes on electrical systems 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 window dressing but decisive action - from the US, Europe and the Group of Seven - in providing air defence systems and implementing sanctions," mentioned in a social media post.
Officials stated that hundreds of unmanned aircraft and more than 30 rockets struck the country's power systems, characterizing such attacks as "strategic and deliberate" and against "critical infrastructure" as the weather cools.
Government representatives said Russia was "conducting extensive attacks" and technical staff were striving to repair systems.
A barrage of missiles damaged electrical systems and residential structures in Kyiv.
Five out of the nine people injured in the strikes on the city have been taken to hospital, per statements from municipal representatives.
Regional authorities said the metropolitan region endured significant strikes overnight. A minor was killed and several individuals were injured.
The strikes come after nights of air raids in the region, parts of which are currently controlled by invading troops.
The entire country is under warning for advanced weapon attacks, which are more difficult to spot.
National leaders told reporters that Moscow was purposely seeking to damage the national power system, with assaults already affecting fuel infrastructure.
He said utility staff and officials were preparing for more assaults.
