During the night, Russian aerial assaults have led to electricity outages in large parts of Ukraine's capital, Kyiv.
Several individuals were injured while residents in the city's east were experienced blackouts and faced disruption to drinking water, per reports from municipal leaders.
At the same time, a young boy was lost their life in a different Russian drone strike in the southeastern region in the southeastern part, as reported by area administrators.

A wave of strikes struck power facilities and apartment buildings in the capital.
Multiple people injured in the attacks on the capital have been transported for medical care, according to municipal representatives.
Local officials said the urban area endured intense attacks during nighttime hours. A minor died and three other people were hurt.

Government officials told the media that Russia was deliberately attempting to damage the country's energy grid, with strikes already disrupting fuel infrastructure.
Officials stated energy workers and officials were bracing for more assaults.
