Several dozens of Syrian protesters stormed the Russian embassy in Libyan capital of Tripoli on Sunday, a day after Russia and China had blocked the UN resolution on Syrian crisis, RIA Novosti reported.

According to the witnesses, several dozens of protesters, condemning Russian and Chinese decisions to block the UN resolution against Syria, climbed onto the roof of the embassy and damaged a Russian flag.

“It was not the first protest near the embassy, but the previous ones were of a peaceful character,” a witness of the protest told RIA Novosti, adding that “this time people were very aggressive.”

No one, including Russian diplomats, was injured in the attack, Foreign Ministry said.
