The country's power facilities have faced increased attacks in recent weeks

Overnight, Moscow's missile and drone strikes have resulted in blackouts in large parts of the capital city, the Ukrainian capital.

Several individuals were wounded while inhabitants in the city's east were left without electricity and faced disruption to water supplies, according to city officials.

Meanwhile, a seven-year-old child was fatally injured in a distinct aerial attack in the Zaporizhzhia region in the southeastern part, as reported by local officials.

Moscow has intensified attacks on energy facilities over the past few days, while officials has demanded "concrete actions" from allies to exert influence on Moscow.

"What is required is not window dressing but strong steps - from the US, the EU and the Group of Seven - in supplying protection systems and applying restrictions," he wrote in a social media post.

Officials stated that numerous aerial vehicles and several dozen missiles struck energy facilities, labeling such strikes as "cynical and calculated" and against "everything that sustains normal life" as temperatures become colder.

Government representatives said Russia was "inflicting a massive strike" and maintenance teams were striving to repair systems.

A wave of strikes damaged power facilities and residential structures in the capital.

Multiple people injured in the assaults on the capital have been taken to hospital, per statements from local officials.

Area administrators said the urban area endured intense attacks overnight. A minor died and several individuals were wounded.

The attacks succeed periods of air raids in the area, portions of which are occupied by Russian forces.

All of Ukraine is under warning for sophisticated projectile assaults, which are harder to detect.

Government officials told journalists that Moscow was intentionally trying to demolish the national power system, with strikes already affecting energy systems.

Authorities confirmed energy workers and officials were bracing for further attacks.
