Yvette Cooper's statement on Iran was briefly interrupted after someone walked into the camera live on air.

The Foreign Secretary spoke during talks with a coalition of countries aimed at reopening the vital Strait of Hormuz shipping lane for oil on Thursday (2 April).

Shuffling could be heard to the side, before two crouching people bumped into the lens as they attempted to squeeze past, knocking the camera operator off-balance.

During her speech, Yvette Cooper condemned "Iranian recklessness" for "hitting global economic security", as the UK looks to lead a diplomatic group to restore access to the shipping route.
