During the night, Russian aerial assaults have resulted in blackouts in large parts of Ukraine's capital, Kyiv.

Moscow has increased attacks on electrical systems over the last fortnight, while the country's government has demanded "real steps" from partner nations to apply pressure on Russia.

Several of the people hurt in the strikes on the capital have been taken to hospital, according to city authorities.

National leaders told journalists that Russia was purposely seeking to demolish the national power system, with assaults already affecting fuel infrastructure.
Officials stated energy workers and officials were preparing for further attacks.
