Moscow has increased assaults on power infrastructure over the past few days, while Ukrainian leadership has called for "concrete actions" from partner nations to exert influence on Russia.
"What's needed is not symbolic gestures but decisive action - from the America, European nations and the major economies - in providing air defence systems and enforcing penalties," mentioned in a public message.
Authorities reported that hundreds of unmanned aircraft and several dozen rockets attacked energy facilities, describing such strikes as "strategic and deliberate" and against "everything that sustains normal life" as the weather cools.

Multiple people hurt in the assaults on the capital have been hospitalized, as confirmed by local officials.
