Throughout the evening, Russian missile and drone strikes have led to electricity outages in large parts of the capital city, Kyiv.
Nine people were hurt while residents in the city's east were plunged into darkness and encountered disruption to drinking water, as stated by local authorities.
Meanwhile, a young boy was lost their life in a different aerial attack in the southeastern region in the country's south-east, based on information from local officials.
Moscow has increased attacks on electrical systems over the last fortnight, while the country's government has demanded "concrete actions" from allies to apply pressure on Russia.
"What's needed is not superficial actions but firm measures - from the America, Europe and the G7 - in delivering air defence systems and applying sanctions," he wrote in a online statement.
He said that hundreds of unmanned aircraft and over thirty rockets attacked Ukraine's energy infrastructure, describing such attacks as "premeditated" and against "everything that sustains normal life" as winter approaches.
The energy minister said Moscow was "launching a major assault" and technical staff were striving to fix the damage.
A barrage of missiles damaged energy infrastructure and apartment buildings in Kyiv.
Several of the people injured in the strikes on the capital have been hospitalized, according to municipal representatives.
Regional authorities said the urban area came under intense attacks during nighttime hours. A seven-year-old child lost their life and several individuals were wounded.
The assaults come after periods of aerial attacks in the territory, parts of which remain under the control of Moscow's military.
The whole nation is on alert for hypersonic Kinzhal missile strikes, which are harder to spot.
Government officials told journalists that Russia was purposely seeking to demolish the country's energy grid, with attacks already affecting energy systems.
Authorities confirmed technical personnel and authorities were anticipating further attacks.
