Ukraine crisis: Odessa detainees freed as police HQ attacked

Pro-Russian activists have attacked the police headquarters in Ukraine's southern city of Odessa, forcing the release of several people held over deadly violence on Friday.

The clashes led to more than 40 deaths. Most of the victims were 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.

Hundreds of pro-Russian activists descended on the police HQ on Sunday.
