A Russian journalist was punched by a drunk man on Wednesday while reporting on Russia’s Paratroopers’ Day celebrations live on air from one of Moscow’s central parks.
The video of Nikita Razvozzhayev, correspondent of the national NTV channel, getting punched in the face by an intoxicated man in Gorky Park, Moscow’s most popular recreational zone, quickly went viral.
In the video, the attacker is seen interrupting Razvozzhayev’s live report by walking into the camera frame and shouting “This is our country! We will conquer Ukraine!”
In response, Razvozzhayev politely asked the man to be quiet, but instead the man hit him.
It wasn’t immediately clear whether the reporter’s injury was serious. According to media reports, the police detained the attacker and launched an investigation into the incident.
