Overnight, Russian missile and drone strikes have resulted in power cuts in multiple districts of the capital city, Kyiv.
A number of civilians were injured while residents in eastern neighborhoods were experienced blackouts and faced problems to water systems, as stated by local authorities.
Simultaneously, a young boy was fatally injured in a separate Russian drone strike in the Zaporizhzhia area in the southeastern part, according to area administrators.
Moscow has increased assaults on electrical systems over recent weeks, while the country's government has called for "real steps" from allies to apply pressure on Moscow.

He said that hundreds of unmanned aircraft and more than 30 rockets targeted Ukraine's energy infrastructure, labeling such assaults as "cynical and calculated" and against "critical infrastructure" as the weather cools.
Government representatives said Russia was "launching a major assault" and technical staff were striving to fix the damage.
A series of attacks damaged power facilities and apartment buildings in the capital.
Five out of the nine people injured in the strikes on the capital have been taken to hospital, per statements from city authorities.
Area administrators said the urban area experienced heavy assaults throughout the evening. A minor died and multiple civilians were injured.
The assaults come after nights of bombing campaigns in the territory, portions of which are currently controlled by Russian forces.
All of Ukraine is on alert for sophisticated projectile assaults, which are harder to detect.
Government officials told reporters that Russia was deliberately attempting to demolish the electrical infrastructure, with assaults already disrupting energy systems.
Authorities confirmed technical personnel and officials were preparing for additional strikes.
