Throughout the evening, Russian missile and drone strikes have led to power cuts in extensive areas of the capital city, Kyiv.
Several individuals were wounded while local people in eastern districts were left without electricity and encountered disruption to water systems, as stated by municipal leaders.

Moscow has increased strikes on energy facilities over recent weeks, while the country's government has requested "substantial measures" from international partners to apply pressure on Russia.
"What is required is not superficial actions but strong steps - from the United States, Europe and the major economies - in providing protection systems and applying sanctions," he wrote in a public message.
Officials stated that hundreds of unmanned aircraft and over thirty rockets attacked Ukraine's energy infrastructure, labeling such assaults as "premeditated" and against "everything that sustains normal life" as winter approaches.
Government representatives said Moscow was "conducting extensive attacks" and maintenance teams were laboring to repair systems.

Five out of the nine people wounded in the attacks on the capital have been taken to hospital, according to municipal representatives.
