Overnight, Moscow's missile and drone strikes have caused power cuts in multiple districts of Ukraine's capital, the Ukrainian capital.

Meanwhile, a young boy was killed in a different assault in the southeastern region in the southeastern part, according to regional authorities.
Moscow has escalated assaults on energy facilities over the last fortnight, while officials has requested "real steps" from international partners to exert influence on Moscow.
"The necessity is not symbolic gestures but strong steps - from the US, the EU and the G7 - in supplying protection systems and applying restrictions," mentioned in a social media post.
Authorities reported that numerous aerial vehicles and several dozen missiles attacked Ukraine's energy infrastructure, labeling such assaults as "premeditated" and against "critical infrastructure" as winter approaches.
Energy officials said Russia was "inflicting a massive strike" and technical staff were working to fix the damage.
A series of attacks damaged energy infrastructure and apartment buildings in the capital.
Several of the people hurt in the strikes on the city have been transported for medical care, according to municipal representatives.
Regional authorities said the city endured significant strikes overnight. A young boy was killed and several individuals were injured.
The strikes follow periods of air raids in the area, sections of which are currently controlled by Moscow's military.
All of Ukraine is in a state of readiness for advanced weapon attacks, which are harder to spot.
Government officials told the media that Moscow was purposely seeking to demolish the national power system, with attacks already disrupting gas facilities.
Officials stated energy workers and government agencies were bracing for further attacks.
