Four separate bombs were detonated in a series of coordinated terrorist attacks in the Ukraine today, raising fears that this summer's Euro 2012 football tournament could be targeted.

Up to 27 people were injured when the devices, which were planted in rubbish bins, exploded at short intervals in the city of Dnipropetrovsk, authorities said.

The Ukraine is preparing to co-host the European Championships with Poland this summer.

 

England's first group stage match against France on June 11 is due to be held at the Donbass Arena, 150 miles away in Donetsk.

Today's bombings are the latest blow for the country that had hoped to use the football tournament to showcase its modern outlook.

A shadow has already been cast over the Kiev government, with calls for a boycott by Western politicians because of the country's jailing of its former prime minister Yulia Tymoshenko.

President Viktor Yanukovich said the bomb blasts were 'a challenge ... to the whole country.'
