During the night, Russian aerial assaults have resulted in blackouts in extensive areas of the capital city, Kyiv.

Simultaneously, a minor was killed in a separate aerial attack in the Zaporizhzhia region in the country's south-east, as reported by local officials.

Moscow has escalated strikes on energy facilities over the past few days, while officials has demanded "real steps" from international partners to increase pressure on Moscow.
