During the night, Moscow's aerial assaults have resulted in electricity outages in multiple districts of the capital city, the Ukrainian capital.
Nine people were hurt while residents in eastern districts were left without electricity and faced interruptions to water supplies, according to local authorities.
Simultaneously, a young boy was lost their life in a separate aerial attack in the Zaporizhzhia area in the country's south-east, based on information from local officials.
Moscow has increased attacks on electrical systems over recent weeks, while Ukrainian leadership has called for "concrete actions" from international partners to increase pressure on Russia.
"What is required is not window dressing but decisive action - from the US, Europe and the major economies - in delivering protection systems and implementing penalties," he wrote in a social media post.
Authorities reported that 450 drones and over thirty projectiles targeted Ukraine's energy infrastructure, labeling such assaults as "strategic and deliberate" and against "critical infrastructure" as the weather cools.
The energy minister said Moscow was "inflicting a massive strike" and technical staff were laboring to repair systems.
A series of attacks hit power facilities and civilian homes in the capital.
Five out of the nine people injured in the strikes on the city have been hospitalized, according to city authorities.
Local officials said the metropolitan region endured significant strikes throughout the evening. A young boy was killed and multiple civilians were hurt.
The strikes follow evenings of bombing campaigns in the area, parts of which are occupied by Russian forces.
The entire country is on alert for hypersonic Kinzhal missile strikes, which are tougher to identify.
Authorities told reporters that Moscow was deliberately attempting to damage the electrical infrastructure, with attacks already impacting fuel infrastructure.
Officials stated energy workers and authorities were bracing for more assaults.
