Throughout the evening, Moscow's aerial assaults have led to blackouts in large parts of Ukraine's capital, the Ukrainian capital.
Nine people were injured while inhabitants in eastern districts were left without electricity and encountered disruption to water supplies, according to city officials.
At the same time, a seven-year-old child was killed in a separate assault in the southeastern region in the country's south-east, according to area administrators.
Moscow has escalated assaults on power infrastructure over the last fortnight, while the country's government has called for "real steps" from international partners to increase pressure on Moscow.

Several of the people hurt in the strikes on the city have been transported for medical care, according to city authorities.
Local officials said the urban area came under intense attacks during nighttime hours. A seven-year-old child died and three other people were wounded.
The strikes come after evenings of bombing campaigns in the area, sections of which are currently controlled by invading troops.
The entire country is under warning for advanced weapon attacks, which are harder to detect.
Government officials told journalists that Russia was purposely seeking to demolish the national power system, with attacks already disrupting gas facilities.
Authorities confirmed utility staff and government agencies were preparing for further attacks.
