During the night, Moscow's aerial assaults have resulted in blackouts in large parts of the capital city, the Ukrainian capital.
Several individuals were wounded while local people in eastern neighborhoods were plunged into darkness and faced disruption to water systems, as stated by city officials.

Moscow has intensified strikes on power infrastructure over the last fortnight, while Ukrainian leadership has demanded "real steps" from international partners to increase pressure on Russia.

Several of the people wounded in the assaults on the capital have been transported for medical care, per statements from city authorities.
