Throughout the evening, Moscow's aerial assaults have caused blackouts in extensive areas of the capital city, the Ukrainian capital.

Simultaneously, a young boy was lost their life in a different assault in the Zaporizhzhia area in the southern area, according to regional authorities.

Russian forces has intensified attacks on power infrastructure over the last fortnight, while the country's government has called for "substantial measures" from partner nations to increase pressure on Russia.

He said that hundreds of unmanned aircraft and more than 30 missiles attacked the country's power systems, labeling such strikes as "strategic and deliberate" and against "everything that sustains normal life" as winter approaches.

Government representatives said Russia was "conducting extensive attacks" and maintenance teams were laboring to fix the damage.
