Vladimir Putin has been cut off during an address to a huge rally in Russia on the eighth anniversary of the annexation of Crimea.
The Russian President was mid-sentence when a state broadcast cut to patriotic songs – prompting confusion among audiences.
He was speaking in front of 100,000 supporters at Moscow’s Luzhniki Stadium when the feed unexpectedly cut out and began playing a concert by singer and composer Oleg Gazmanov.
A woman translating Mr Putin’s speech said: ‘The beginning of the operation coincided by accident with the birthday of one of our military leaders…’ before the feed cut out.
She then translated: ‘Forward Russia, forward Russia. Russia forward.’
Thousands of people waving flags emblazoned with the symbol ‘Z’ packed into Moscow’s World Cup stadium to hear Mr Putin speak.
