Throughout the evening, Russian missile and drone strikes have caused electricity outages in multiple districts of the capital city, the Ukrainian capital.
Nine people were wounded while inhabitants in eastern neighborhoods were left without electricity and encountered disruption to water systems, per reports from local authorities.
At the same time, a young boy was fatally injured in a distinct assault in the southeastern region in the southern area, based on information from regional authorities.
Moscow has increased assaults on electrical systems over recent weeks, while Ukrainian leadership has demanded "substantial measures" from allies to apply pressure on Russia.

He said that hundreds of unmanned aircraft and several dozen rockets struck the country's power systems, characterizing such strikes as "premeditated" and against "critical infrastructure" as winter approaches.

A wave of strikes damaged power facilities and apartment buildings in Kyiv.
Multiple people wounded in the strikes on the capital have been taken to hospital, per statements from municipal representatives.
Regional authorities said the city endured intense attacks throughout the evening. A minor died and several individuals were injured.
The assaults follow nights of air raids in the region, sections of which are occupied by Russian forces.
All of Ukraine is on alert for sophisticated projectile assaults, which are tougher to identify.
National leaders told reporters that Moscow was deliberately attempting to demolish the national power system, with attacks already affecting fuel infrastructure.
Officials stated utility staff and government agencies were preparing for more assaults.
