Throughout the evening, Russian missile and drone strikes have caused power cuts in multiple districts of Ukraine's capital, the Ukrainian capital.

Simultaneously, a minor was killed in a separate aerial attack in the southeastern region in the southern area, according to regional authorities.

Russian forces has intensified attacks on energy facilities over the past few days, while officials has demanded "concrete actions" from allies to apply pressure on Moscow.

"What's needed is not superficial actions but firm measures - from the America, European nations and the Group of Seven - in providing defensive weapons and applying penalties," he wrote in a public message.

He said that hundreds of unmanned aircraft and several dozen projectiles targeted Ukraine's energy infrastructure, labeling such assaults as "premeditated" and against "essential services" as winter approaches.

Government representatives said Moscow was "conducting extensive attacks" and repair crews were working to repair systems.

Five out of the nine people wounded in the strikes on the capital have been taken to hospital, as confirmed by city authorities.

Area administrators said the metropolitan region endured significant strikes overnight. A seven-year-old child died and several individuals were wounded.

The attacks succeed periods of aerial attacks in the area, parts of which are occupied by Moscow's military.

All of Ukraine is in a state of readiness for advanced weapon attacks, which are tougher to spot.

Government officials told journalists that Russia was intentionally trying to destroy the electrical infrastructure, with attacks already affecting energy systems.

Authorities confirmed utility staff and government agencies were preparing for additional strikes.
