During the night, Russian aerial assaults have resulted in power cuts in multiple districts of the capital city, Kyiv.
Nine people were wounded while inhabitants in the city's east were left without electricity and dealt with interruptions to water supplies, per reports from local authorities.
Meanwhile, a minor was lost their life in a separate aerial attack in the southeastern region in the southeastern part, based on information from area administrators.
Moscow has intensified assaults on electrical systems over the past few days, while Ukrainian leadership has demanded "real steps" from allies to apply pressure on Russia.
"The necessity is not superficial actions but decisive action - from the US, European nations and the Group of Seven - in delivering protection systems and implementing restrictions," mentioned in a public message.
He said that hundreds of unmanned aircraft and several dozen projectiles struck energy facilities, characterizing such assaults as "strategic and deliberate" and against "critical infrastructure" as the weather cools.
The energy minister said Russia was "conducting extensive attacks" and repair crews were working to fix the damage.
A barrage of missiles struck power facilities and residential structures in the capital.
Five out of the nine people hurt in the strikes on the city have been taken to hospital, as confirmed by municipal representatives.
Local officials said the city came under significant strikes throughout the evening. A seven-year-old child was killed and three other people were wounded.
The assaults follow nights of air raids in the territory, parts of which are occupied by invading troops.
The whole nation is in a state of readiness for advanced weapon attacks, which are tougher to spot.
National leaders told the media that Russia was intentionally trying to destroy the country's energy grid, with strikes already affecting energy systems.
Authorities confirmed energy workers and authorities were preparing for further attacks.
