During the night, Moscow's missile and drone strikes have led to power cuts in multiple districts of the capital city, Kyiv.
Nine people were wounded while local people in eastern districts were left without electricity and faced problems to water systems, as stated by city officials.
At the same time, a young boy was killed in a distinct aerial attack in the Zaporizhzhia area in the southern area, as reported by area administrators.
Moscow has increased attacks on power infrastructure over the past few days, while officials has requested "substantial measures" from allies to increase pressure on Moscow.
"What is required is not window dressing but decisive action - from the America, European nations and the G7 - in providing air defence systems and enforcing sanctions," he wrote in a social media post.
He said that numerous aerial vehicles and more than 30 projectiles targeted the country's power systems, labeling such strikes as "strategic and deliberate" and against "essential services" as temperatures become colder.
The energy minister said Russia was "launching a major assault" and maintenance teams were working to repair systems.
A wave of strikes damaged electrical systems and residential structures in the capital.
Multiple people hurt in the attacks on the city have been taken to hospital, per statements from municipal representatives.
Regional authorities said the metropolitan region endured significant strikes during nighttime hours. A seven-year-old child died and several individuals were hurt.
The strikes succeed evenings of air raids in the area, portions of which remain under the control of Russian forces.
The entire country is on alert for hypersonic Kinzhal missile strikes, which are harder to detect.
National leaders told journalists that Moscow was deliberately attempting to damage the electrical infrastructure, with attacks already affecting gas facilities.
Authorities confirmed energy workers and authorities were anticipating additional strikes.
