Intensive Russian Attacks Eliminate Power In Kyiv
Overnight, Moscow's missile and drone strikes have resulted in power cuts in large parts of the capital city, Kyiv.
Nine people were wounded while residents in the city's east were experienced blackouts and encountered problems to water systems, as stated by municipal leaders.
At the same time, a young boy was lost their life in a separate Russian drone strike in the southeastern region in the southern area, based on information from local officials.
Moscow has increased attacks on power infrastructure over the past few days, while officials has called for "substantial measures" from allies to exert influence on Russia.
"What's needed is not superficial actions but strong steps - from the America, European nations and the G7 - in supplying air defence systems and applying penalties," was stated in a public message.
Authorities reported that 450 drones and over thirty rockets struck Ukraine's energy infrastructure, labeling such attacks as "premeditated" and against "everything that sustains normal life" as temperatures become colder.
The energy minister said Russia was "conducting extensive attacks" and technical staff were striving to restore power.
A barrage of missiles damaged power facilities and residential structures in the capital.
Several of the people wounded in the assaults on the capital have been taken to hospital, as confirmed by municipal representatives.
Area administrators said the urban area came under heavy assaults overnight. A young boy lost their life and three other people were hurt.
The assaults follow evenings of bombing campaigns in the territory, portions of which are occupied by Russian forces.
All of Ukraine is under warning for advanced weapon attacks, which are harder to identify.
Authorities told the media that Russia was intentionally trying to demolish the country's energy grid, with attacks already affecting fuel infrastructure.
Authorities confirmed energy workers and authorities were preparing for additional strikes.
