Authorities reported that numerous aerial vehicles and over thirty missiles attacked energy facilities, labeling such attacks as "cynical and calculated" and against "essential services" as temperatures become colder.
Government representatives said Russia was "inflicting a massive strike" and maintenance teams were striving to fix the damage.
A barrage of missiles damaged power facilities and residential structures in Kyiv.
Several of the people wounded in the assaults on the capital have been hospitalized, as confirmed by city authorities.
