A medical centre was also destroyed in the strike, which featured three missiles, and over 90 individuals sought medical assistance, with about 50 of them being in a bad condition, according to the police.
Thick black smoke billowed from a tall structure, and sirens blared as emergency personnel hurried to the site.
Pictures from the State Emergency Service's internet photo gallery showed later-rising grey smoke billowing from the crumpled wreckage of burned-out autos. One image depicted an abandoned, toppled pram on the street.
The national police chief said an office block suffered a direct hit, damaging nearby residential buildings and setting off a huge fire. President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has deplored the attack as an open act of terrorism by Russia. Moscow has constantly denied deliberately targeting civilians.
