Local leader Denis Pushilin said two children were among those injured.
Russia has claimed that Western-supplied weapons were used in the attack at a market in Tekstilshchik on Sunday.
Kyiv did not immediately comment on the strike, but its Tavria army group later denied responsibility.
UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres “strongly condemns all attacks against civilians and civilian infrastructure, including today’s shelling of the city of Donetsk in Ukraine,” according to a UN spokesperson.
