Officials stated that hundreds of unmanned aircraft and over thirty missiles targeted the country's power systems, describing such strikes as "strategic and deliberate" and against "critical infrastructure" as temperatures become colder.
Energy officials said Russia was "inflicting a massive strike" and maintenance teams were striving to repair systems.
A wave of strikes damaged power facilities and civilian homes in Kyiv.
Multiple people wounded in the assaults on the capital have been hospitalized, per statements from municipal representatives.
