The unverified video of the kangaroo trying to force its way through the gates of the Russian Embassy in Australia has led to some hilarious comments.
Twitter user Bakhti Nishanov wrote: “Apparently a kangaroo attacked the gates of the Russian embassy in Australia. I guess now we know where kangaroos stand on the war.”

This isn’t the first time a Russian Embassy has come under ‘attack’.
On Wednesday, April 6, a flaming car crashed into the Russian Embassy in Bucharest, Romania.
Videos shared on social media at the time showed the moments a car covered in flames rammed into the gates outside the embassy as police stood by unable to prevent the incident.
Prior to that on March 7, a man was arrested by Gardai in Dublin after he reversed his lorry through the gates of the Russian embassy on Orwell Road.
At around 1.30 pm, the man smashed through the gates before coming to a standstill at the entrance to the building – as a crowd of onlookers cheered him on.
