  We consider elliptic equations with operators $L=a^{ij}D_{ij}+b^{i}D_{i}-c$
with $a$ being almost in VMO, $b\in L_{d}$ and $c\in L_{q}$, $c\geq0$, $d>q\geq
d/2$. We prove the solvability of $Lu=f\in L_{p}$ in bounded $C^{1,1}$-domains,
$1<p\leq q$, and of $\lambda u-Lu=f$ in the whole space for any $\lambda>0$.
Weak uniqueness of the martingale problem associated with such operators is
also obtained.
