During the night, Russian missile and drone strikes have caused electricity outages in large parts of the capital city, Kyiv.

Nine people were hurt while local people in eastern districts were experienced blackouts and dealt with disruption to water supplies, per reports from local authorities.

At the same time, a minor was fatally injured in a separate aerial attack in the Zaporizhzhia region in the country's south-east, as reported by area administrators.

Russian forces has increased strikes on power infrastructure over the past few days, while the country's government has requested "concrete actions" from international partners to increase pressure on Moscow.

"What's needed is not superficial actions but firm measures - from the United States, the EU and the major economies - in supplying defensive weapons and implementing restrictions," mentioned in a social media post.

Officials stated that 450 drones and several dozen missiles attacked Ukraine's energy infrastructure, characterizing such attacks as "cynical and calculated" and against "everything that sustains normal life" as the weather cools.

Energy officials said Moscow was "conducting extensive attacks" and technical staff were working to fix the damage.

A series of attacks damaged energy infrastructure and apartment buildings in the capital.

Five out of the nine people injured in the strikes on the capital have been hospitalized, according to city authorities.

Regional authorities said the metropolitan region endured heavy assaults throughout the evening. A seven-year-old child lost their life and multiple civilians were injured.

The strikes succeed nights of aerial attacks in the area, parts of which are occupied by invading troops.

The entire country is on alert for advanced weapon attacks, which are harder to identify.

Government officials told journalists that Moscow was deliberately attempting to destroy the national power system, with assaults already affecting fuel infrastructure.

Authorities confirmed energy workers and officials were anticipating more assaults.
