Throughout the evening, Russian aerial assaults have resulted in power cuts in multiple districts of the capital city, Kyiv.

Simultaneously, a minor was killed in a different Russian drone strike in the southeastern region in the country's south-east, as reported by local officials.
Russian forces has escalated assaults on power infrastructure over the last fortnight, while the country's government has called for "concrete actions" from international partners to exert influence on Moscow.
"What is required is not superficial actions but strong steps - from the US, European nations and the major economies - in supplying air defence systems and implementing sanctions," he wrote in a public message.
Officials stated that hundreds of unmanned aircraft and over thirty rockets attacked energy facilities, labeling such assaults as "cynical and calculated" and against "critical infrastructure" as temperatures become colder.
The energy minister said Russia was "inflicting a massive strike" and repair crews were striving to repair systems.
A wave of strikes damaged energy infrastructure and residential structures in Kyiv.
Multiple people injured in the strikes on the capital have been hospitalized, per statements from municipal representatives.
Regional authorities said the metropolitan region endured significant strikes overnight. A seven-year-old child died and several individuals were hurt.
The assaults come after evenings of bombing campaigns in the region, sections of which remain under the control of Russian forces.
The whole nation is under warning for hypersonic Kinzhal missile strikes, which are tougher to detect.
Authorities told journalists that Russia was purposely seeking to destroy the electrical infrastructure, with attacks already impacting gas facilities.
Authorities confirmed energy workers and authorities were preparing for more assaults.
