Area administrators said the urban area experienced heavy assaults during nighttime hours. A minor was killed and three other people were injured.

The attacks succeed evenings of air raids in the region, parts of which are currently controlled by Moscow's military.

The entire country is under warning for sophisticated projectile assaults, which are tougher to spot.

Authorities told reporters that Moscow was deliberately attempting to destroy the country's energy grid, with attacks already disrupting energy systems.

Officials stated technical personnel and authorities were bracing for additional strikes.
