Qatari World Cup organisers have apologised to a Danish television station whose live broadcast from a street in Doha was interrupted by security staff who threatened to break a camera.

Journalists from the TV2 channel were “mistakenly interrupted” late on Tuesday evening, the Supreme Committee for Delivery and Legacy acknowledged in a statement.
