During the night, Moscow's missile and drone strikes have resulted in power cuts in large parts of the capital city, the Ukrainian capital.
A number of civilians were wounded while residents in eastern districts were left without electricity and faced problems to drinking water, as stated by city officials.
Meanwhile, a young boy was killed in a distinct assault in the southeastern region in the southeastern part, based on information from regional authorities.
Moscow has increased attacks on electrical systems over the last fortnight, while the country's government has demanded "concrete actions" from allies to exert influence on Moscow.

He said that numerous aerial vehicles and over thirty projectiles attacked energy facilities, describing such strikes as "premeditated" and against "everything that sustains normal life" as the weather cools.
Energy officials said Russia was "launching a major assault" and repair crews were laboring to restore power.
A barrage of missiles damaged power facilities and residential structures in Kyiv.
Five out of the nine people hurt in the attacks on the city have been transported for medical care, per statements from local officials.
Local officials said the metropolitan region endured significant strikes overnight. A seven-year-old child was killed and multiple civilians were hurt.
The strikes follow nights of bombing campaigns in the territory, parts of which remain under the control of Moscow's military.
The entire country is under warning for sophisticated projectile assaults, which are tougher to detect.
Government officials told reporters that Russia was intentionally trying to demolish the electrical infrastructure, with strikes already affecting energy systems.
Officials stated utility staff and government agencies were bracing for more assaults.
