Russian forces has escalated strikes on electrical systems over the last fortnight, while officials has called for "substantial measures" from partner nations to increase pressure on Russia.

"The necessity is not symbolic gestures but decisive action - from the US, European nations and the Group of Seven - in providing air defence systems and applying penalties," was stated in a online statement.

Officials stated that 450 drones and more than 30 projectiles targeted Ukraine's energy infrastructure, characterizing such attacks as "cynical and calculated" and against "everything that sustains normal life" as the weather cools.

Government representatives said Russia was "conducting extensive attacks" and technical staff were laboring to repair systems.

A barrage of missiles hit energy infrastructure and residential structures in Kyiv.

Authorities told journalists that Russia was intentionally trying to destroy the country's energy grid, with attacks already impacting energy systems.

Authorities confirmed energy workers and government agencies were bracing for more assaults.
