During the night, Russian missile and drone strikes have led to 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 dealt with interruptions to water systems, per reports from local authorities.
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, according to area administrators.
Moscow has intensified assaults on power infrastructure over the last fortnight, while officials has requested "substantial measures" from partner nations to exert influence on Russia.
"What is required is not symbolic gestures but strong steps - from the US, the EU and the Group of Seven - in providing defensive weapons and enforcing penalties," he wrote in a online statement.
Officials stated that hundreds of unmanned aircraft and over thirty projectiles targeted energy facilities, labeling such attacks as "premeditated" and against "critical infrastructure" as the weather cools.
The energy minister said Moscow was "conducting extensive attacks" and repair crews were striving to restore power.
A wave of strikes struck power facilities and residential structures in Kyiv.
Multiple people hurt in the strikes on the city have been hospitalized, as confirmed by local officials.
Local officials said the city experienced heavy assaults overnight. A young boy was killed and three other people were wounded.
The assaults follow evenings of bombing campaigns in the territory, sections of which are currently controlled by invading troops.
All of Ukraine is on alert for sophisticated projectile assaults, which are more difficult to identify.
Authorities told the media that Moscow was intentionally trying to damage the electrical infrastructure, with attacks already affecting fuel infrastructure.
He said utility staff and government agencies were preparing for more assaults.
