Protesters splattered Russia’s ambassador to Poland, Sergey Andreev, with red paint Monday — in an apparent nod to the blood spilled in war-torn Ukraine.
Protesters doused Andreev when he arrived at the Soviet Military Cemetery to lay flowers at the graves of fallen soldiers and pay tribute to Red Army soldiers who were killed in World War II. Russia celebrates Victory Day every year on May 9.
Footage of Andreev and nearby Russian officials getting covered with the red paint quickly made the rounds on social media.
