More than 40 suspected "saboteurs" detained in Odesa:

Ukrainian authorities say they have detained more than 40 alleged members of a terror group in the Black Sea port city of Odesa.

A spokeswoman for the Ukrainian Security Service (SBU), Olena Hitlyanska, wrote on Facebook on April 10 that the suspects had planned a series of terrorist acts in the city during celebrations marking Orthodox Easter on April 12.

"A large number of weapons and explosives" were confiscated from the suspects, Hitlyanska wrote.

She added that searches were continuing.

Last week, the SBU said it detained three people suspected of involvement in a series of bombings in Odesa, some of them targeting organizations with ties to soldiers fighting against Russian-backed rebels in eastern Ukraine.

Ukrainian authorities blamed those blasts on Russia and the rebels who hold parts of the regions of Donetsk and Luhansk.

Kolomoyskiy "invited" to talk to prosecutors, our Ukrainian Service reports:

Ukraine's prosecutor-general says he has "invited" powerful oligarch Ihor Kolomoyskiy to answer questions regarding the attempted murder of a lawyer a decade ago.

Lawyer Serhiy Karpenko survived a stabbing attack in 2005 and left Ukraine over fears for his life. Kolomoyskiy was suspected of masterminding the attack.

Prosecutor-General Viktor Shokin told the LB.ua news portal on April 10 that he had "invited" Kolomoyskiy to come and explain what happened.

Shokin did not say whether Kolomoyskiy was under investigation or whether he had been summoned to appear before police, saying it was up to the investigator to decide whether to issue a subpoena.

Kolomoyskiy, one of the richest men in Ukraine, was dismissed by President Petro Poroshenko from the post of Dnipropetrovsk regional governor on March 24.

Kolomoyskiy and his armed militia had stormed the headquarters of the oil giant UkrTransNafta in Kyiv following a government decision to replace the company's management.
