Ukraine Crisis: Pro-Russians Attack Odessa Police HQ -- BBC
Pro-Russian activists have attacked the police headquarters in Odessa, two days after violence in the southern Ukrainian city left dozens dead.
The clashes came after hundreds of people gathered outside the building, demanding that those arrested after Friday's unrest be released.
The victims were mostly pro-Russian separatists killed when the building they were barricaded in caught fire.
Ukraine's interim PM has accused police of failing to prevent the violence.
