"What is required is not symbolic gestures but strong steps - from the US, European nations and the G7 - in supplying defensive weapons and enforcing penalties," he wrote in a online statement.
Officials stated that 450 drones and several dozen projectiles targeted Ukraine's energy infrastructure, labeling such attacks as "strategic and deliberate" and against "everything that sustains normal life" as winter approaches.
Energy officials said Moscow was "conducting extensive attacks" and technical staff were laboring to fix the damage.
A barrage of missiles hit electrical systems and residential structures in the capital.
Five out of the nine people hurt in the strikes on the city have been transported for medical care, as confirmed by municipal representatives.
Local officials said the city endured intense attacks throughout the evening. A young boy lost their life and several individuals were hurt.
The strikes come after evenings of bombing campaigns in the territory, portions of which are occupied by Russian forces.
The whole nation is on alert for advanced weapon attacks, which are harder to detect.
Government officials told reporters that Moscow was purposely seeking to demolish the electrical infrastructure, with strikes already affecting gas facilities.
Officials stated utility staff and government agencies were bracing for additional strikes.
