Throughout the evening, Russian missile and drone strikes have resulted in power cuts in large parts of Ukraine's capital, the Ukrainian capital.
Nine people were hurt while local people in eastern districts were plunged into darkness and dealt with interruptions to drinking water, according to municipal leaders.
Meanwhile, a young boy was fatally injured in a different assault in the southeastern region in the country's south-east, as reported by area administrators.
Moscow has intensified strikes on power infrastructure over the last fortnight, while Ukrainian leadership has requested "substantial measures" from allies to exert influence on Russia.
"The necessity is not symbolic gestures but decisive action - from the US, Europe and the G7 - in providing protection systems and enforcing penalties," mentioned in a online statement.
Authorities reported that numerous aerial vehicles and several dozen missiles targeted Ukraine's energy infrastructure, labeling such attacks as "strategic and deliberate" and against "essential services" as temperatures become colder.
Energy officials said Moscow was "conducting extensive attacks" and repair crews were working to fix the damage.
A barrage of missiles hit electrical systems and apartment buildings in Kyiv.
Several of the people wounded in the attacks on the capital have been hospitalized, per statements from municipal representatives.
Area administrators said the city experienced intense attacks throughout the evening. A seven-year-old child was killed and several individuals were wounded.
The strikes come after nights of aerial attacks in the area, sections of which are currently controlled by Russian forces.
The whole nation is under warning for sophisticated projectile assaults, which are tougher to detect.
Authorities told reporters that Moscow was intentionally trying to destroy the national power system, with attacks already impacting gas facilities.
Authorities confirmed energy workers and government agencies were bracing for further attacks.
