The late-evening attack on Monday hit an educational institution, residences, an underground station and medical facilities.
Debris was seen around damaged vehicles, and shattered glass and broken wooden panels littered the entrance to a metro station.
The Southern Bridge and related subway infrastructure on it were damaged in an attack on Kyiv, Mayor Vitali Klitschko said on Telegram on Tuesday, with city authorities saying separately that traffic there was suspended.

Zelenskyy shared a video of the aftermath of the Russian attack showing a blast crater and a fire amid rubble. "For the moment, the number of people is not exactly known," he said on Telegram. "But tragically, there are victims. There are people injured. Rescue operations are underway."
Reuters verified the location from the road layout, buildings, trees and street signage, which matched archive and satellite imagery. The date when the video was filmed could not be confirmed.
Kyiv Mayor Vitali Klitschko, writing on Telegram, said one person had been killed near a supermarket. Ukraine's state rescue services said a body was found by a heavily damaged apartment building.
