A series of attacks struck energy infrastructure 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 city authorities.

National leaders told journalists that Moscow was purposely seeking to damage the country's energy grid, with strikes already affecting energy systems.
