Sky News viewers were shocked as a live broadcast of Sergei Lavrov’s press conference was interrupted by an unknown man talking to his friend “Lewis” on the phone about the Ukraine conflict. The man was heard saying “another day, another war” before exclaiming he would no longer be working in war zones in the future. Although it is unclear if the man works for Sky News, the outburst was only broadcast on the Sky News channel with many online calling for the man’s sacking.
Mr Lavrov spoke to reporters across the world about the Ukraine conflict but the translator was shouted over after a phone call was accidentally aired.
The man said on the phone: “Hiya Lewis how you doing?
“Yeah, not bad mate you know, another day another war… and all that…
“This will be the last one I swear to you, I am not doing any more wars.”
The phone call appeared to be cut off but many viewers went online to share their confusion over the random outburst.

“I bet that sound department had a heart attack.”
@myworldmywords added: “Another day, another war, (laugh) it sounds like someone in the Sky News studio is taking the #UkraineInvasion seriously in the background!!”
@strngpoliticsuk was angry at the broadcast and said: “disgusting that people behind the scenes are LAUGHING at this.”
