Throughout the evening, Moscow's missile and drone strikes have resulted in electricity outages in multiple districts of the capital city, the Ukrainian capital.

Authorities reported that 450 drones and more than 30 rockets struck energy facilities, labeling such assaults as "premeditated" and against "essential services" as the weather cools.

Energy officials said Moscow was "conducting extensive attacks" and maintenance teams were striving to restore power.

The attacks follow periods of aerial attacks in the area, parts of which are currently controlled by Russian forces.

All of Ukraine is on alert for sophisticated projectile assaults, which are more difficult to identify.
