During the night, Russian aerial assaults have caused blackouts in large parts of the capital city, Kyiv.

Nine people were wounded while residents in eastern neighborhoods were experienced blackouts and encountered disruption to water systems, as stated by local authorities.

Officials stated that 450 drones and over thirty missiles struck energy facilities, labeling such attacks as "premeditated" and against "everything that sustains normal life" as winter approaches.

Energy officials said Moscow was "launching a major assault" and maintenance teams were laboring to fix the damage.

A series of attacks struck power facilities and apartment buildings in the capital.

Several of the people hurt in the attacks on the capital have been taken to hospital, as confirmed by city authorities.
