During the night, Russian aerial assaults have resulted in power cuts in multiple districts of the capital city, the Ukrainian capital.
Nine people were injured while residents in eastern neighborhoods were experienced blackouts and dealt with problems to water systems, as stated by municipal leaders.

Moscow has increased attacks on power infrastructure over the last fortnight, while officials has called for "concrete actions" from partner nations to increase pressure on Russia.
"What is required is not symbolic gestures but strong steps - from the America, Europe and the major economies - in providing air defence systems and implementing restrictions," was stated in a social media post.
Authorities reported that 450 drones and over thirty missiles attacked Ukraine's energy infrastructure, characterizing such attacks as "premeditated" and against "critical infrastructure" as winter approaches.
Energy officials said Russia was "launching a major assault" and repair crews were striving to restore power.
A wave of strikes struck energy infrastructure and apartment buildings in the capital.
Five out of the nine people injured in the assaults on the capital have been taken to hospital, per statements from municipal representatives.
Regional authorities said the city experienced heavy assaults throughout the evening. A young boy died and several individuals were injured.
The assaults come after evenings of air raids in the territory, portions of which remain under the control of invading troops.
