Officials stated that numerous aerial vehicles and several dozen missiles targeted energy facilities, labeling such strikes as "strategic and deliberate" and against "essential services" as the weather cools.

Energy officials said Moscow was "inflicting a massive strike" and maintenance teams were working to fix the damage.

A series of attacks hit energy infrastructure and civilian homes in Kyiv.

Regional authorities said the metropolitan region endured intense attacks throughout the evening. A young boy lost their life and several individuals were hurt.

The strikes come after nights of air raids in the region, sections of which remain under the control of Moscow's military.

The whole nation is on alert for advanced weapon attacks, which are tougher to detect.

Government officials told reporters that Moscow was deliberately attempting to demolish the national power system, with strikes already impacting gas facilities.

Authorities confirmed technical personnel and government agencies were preparing for more assaults.
