Overnight, Moscow's aerial assaults have led to electricity outages in large parts of the capital city, Kyiv.
Nine people were injured while inhabitants in eastern districts were plunged into darkness and encountered problems to water supplies, per reports from municipal leaders.
Simultaneously, a seven-year-old child was fatally injured in a different aerial attack in the Zaporizhzhia region in the southeastern part, as reported by area administrators.
Moscow has increased strikes on power infrastructure over the past few days, while the country's government has requested "real steps" from allies to increase pressure on Moscow.
"The necessity is not symbolic gestures but firm measures - from the United States, European nations and the Group of Seven - in providing air defence systems and applying sanctions," was stated in a social media post.
Authorities reported that numerous aerial vehicles and over thirty rockets attacked Ukraine's energy infrastructure, describing such assaults as "premeditated" and against "essential services" as temperatures become colder.
The energy minister said Moscow was "inflicting a massive strike" and maintenance teams were striving to repair systems.
A barrage of missiles damaged electrical systems and civilian homes in the capital.
Several of the people wounded in the strikes on the capital have been transported for medical care, according to municipal representatives.
Area administrators said the metropolitan region came under intense attacks overnight. A young boy was killed and three other people were injured.
The assaults succeed evenings of air raids in the territory, sections of which are occupied by Moscow's military.
All of Ukraine is on alert for hypersonic Kinzhal missile strikes, which are harder to identify.
National leaders told the media that Moscow was purposely seeking to demolish the national power system, with assaults already affecting fuel infrastructure.
Officials stated utility staff and authorities were preparing for more assaults.
