Major Moscow's Assaults Disrupt Electricity In Ukraine's Capital
During the night, Moscow's missile and drone strikes have caused power cuts in extensive areas of the capital city, Kyiv.

Simultaneously, a seven-year-old child was fatally injured in a separate assault in the Zaporizhzhia region in the southeastern part, based on information from regional authorities.
Moscow has intensified attacks on power infrastructure over the past few days, while officials has demanded "real steps" from partner nations to apply pressure on Russia.
"What's needed is not window dressing but strong steps - from the US, European nations and the G7 - in providing protection systems and enforcing restrictions," was stated in a online statement.
Authorities reported that 450 drones and over thirty rockets attacked Ukraine's energy infrastructure, characterizing such attacks as "premeditated" and against "critical infrastructure" as winter approaches.
The energy minister said Moscow was "conducting extensive attacks" and repair crews were working to repair systems.
A series of attacks damaged power facilities and residential structures in Kyiv.
Multiple people wounded in the assaults on the capital have been hospitalized, as confirmed by local officials.
Regional authorities said the urban area endured intense attacks overnight. A minor was killed and several individuals were wounded.
The strikes come after evenings of bombing campaigns in the territory, parts of which are occupied by Moscow's military.
The whole nation is under warning for advanced weapon attacks, which are harder to spot.
Authorities told reporters that Moscow was intentionally trying to destroy the country's energy grid, with attacks already impacting energy systems.
Officials stated energy workers and officials were anticipating more assaults.
