RUSSIAN Ambassador Sergey Andreyev was covered in blood-red paint as protesters surprised him during a visit to the Mausoleum of Soviet Soldiers in Warsaw.
The Russian diplomat was left literally red-faced as anti-war demonstrators doused him with red paint during his visit to the memorial.
Sergey Andreyev was paying tribute to fallen Soviet soldiers to mark Victory Day, a commemoration believed to be ideologically pivotal for Vladimir Putin.
Footage of the incident showed Andreyev trying to maintain his composure despite dripping in paint and protesters screaming at him over Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
