Officials stated that hundreds of unmanned aircraft and more than 30 missiles targeted Ukraine's energy infrastructure, describing such strikes as "premeditated" and against "essential services" as winter approaches.
The energy minister said Moscow was "launching a major assault" and maintenance teams were striving to restore power.
A barrage of missiles hit energy infrastructure and civilian homes in the capital.
Five out of the nine people injured in the assaults on the capital have been transported for medical care, according to local officials.
Local officials said the city came under heavy assaults overnight. A seven-year-old child was killed and three other people were hurt.
The strikes come after periods of aerial attacks in the area, parts of which are currently controlled by Russian forces.

National leaders told the media that Moscow was purposely seeking to demolish the electrical infrastructure, with attacks already disrupting energy systems.
Officials stated technical personnel and authorities were bracing for further attacks.
