Tensions increase in Ukraine's Odessa

38 people died and 200 were injured after the building housing the Odessan labour unions caught fire yesterday. The Ukrainian police believe the fire was caused by arson.

 

A mass fight started last night on Greek Street, where pro-EU activists clashed with pro-Russian protesters. Another fight took place on Kolikovo Field.

 

The acting mayor of Odessa, Oleg Bryndak, called on both sides to refrain from violence.
