Moscow has intensified strikes on power infrastructure over the last fortnight, while officials has demanded "substantial measures" from international partners to exert influence on Russia.
"What's needed is not superficial actions but decisive action - from the America, the EU and the major economies - in delivering air defence systems and enforcing restrictions," mentioned in a social media post.
Officials stated that hundreds of unmanned aircraft and more than 30 missiles targeted Ukraine's energy infrastructure, describing such strikes as "strategic and deliberate" and against "essential services" as the weather cools.
Government representatives said Russia was "inflicting a massive strike" and maintenance teams were striving to repair systems.
A barrage of missiles hit energy infrastructure and civilian homes in the capital.
Multiple people hurt in the attacks on the capital have been taken to hospital, according to city authorities.
Area administrators said the city endured significant strikes during nighttime hours. A young boy lost their life and three other people were hurt.
The assaults come after evenings of air raids in the region, portions of which are currently controlled by Russian forces.
The entire country is on alert for hypersonic Kinzhal missile strikes, which are more difficult to spot.
Government officials told reporters that Russia was deliberately attempting to demolish the national power system, with strikes already affecting fuel infrastructure.
