During the night, Moscow's missile and drone strikes have caused electricity outages in multiple districts of the capital city, Kyiv.
A number of civilians were wounded while residents in the city's east were left without electricity and encountered interruptions to water systems, as stated by city officials.

A barrage of missiles struck power facilities and residential structures in the capital.
Several of the people injured in the assaults on the capital have been transported for medical care, as confirmed by municipal representatives.
Area administrators said the city experienced significant strikes throughout the evening. A minor was killed and multiple civilians were hurt.
The attacks follow evenings of air raids in the territory, sections of which remain under the control of Moscow's military.

National leaders told reporters that Moscow was intentionally trying to destroy the country's energy grid, with attacks already disrupting fuel infrastructure.
Officials stated energy workers and authorities were preparing for additional strikes.
