Throughout the evening, Russian aerial assaults have caused power cuts in large parts of Ukraine's capital, the Ukrainian capital.
A number of civilians were injured while inhabitants in eastern districts were experienced blackouts and encountered disruption to water supplies, according to local authorities.

A barrage of missiles damaged power facilities and apartment buildings in Kyiv.
Five out of the nine people hurt in the strikes on the capital have been taken to hospital, as confirmed by city authorities.
Local officials said the metropolitan region experienced significant strikes during nighttime hours. A young boy was killed and three other people were wounded.
The attacks succeed evenings of bombing campaigns in the area, parts of which are currently controlled by Moscow's military.
The whole nation is in a state of readiness for advanced weapon attacks, which are tougher to spot.
National leaders told reporters that Russia was purposely seeking to destroy the country's energy grid, with attacks already disrupting fuel infrastructure.
Authorities confirmed energy workers and officials were bracing for additional strikes.
