During the night, Moscow's aerial assaults have led to power cuts in multiple districts of Ukraine's capital, Kyiv.

Local officials said the metropolitan region came under significant strikes throughout the evening. A minor lost their life and several individuals were hurt.

The assaults succeed periods of bombing campaigns in the region, portions of which are occupied by Russian forces.

The entire country is in a state of readiness for hypersonic Kinzhal missile strikes, which are more difficult to identify.

Authorities told reporters that Russia was purposely seeking to damage the country's energy grid, with assaults already affecting gas facilities.

Officials stated technical personnel and authorities were anticipating additional strikes.
