Syrian Lawyer's 'Technical Glitch' Caused by Wife Amuses Viewers

A funny video clip from a live broadcast on the official Syrian television channel on Sunday evening has gone viral on social media, featuring a Syrian woman named 'Um Walid'. During the show, which was aired on the Syrian News Channel, the host was interviewing guest lawyer Mohammad al-Saffadi. When the host asked a question, al-Saffadi excused himself, saying: 'Professor Muaz, just a moment...'. The host laughed and humorously commented, 'It seems something urgent came up for our guest.' However, the lawyer quickly returned, joking with the host, 'It was a technical glitch.' The real surprise came when the host asked him what this 'technical glitch' was that occurred on air. The guest replied, 'Um Walid,' referring to his wife calling him. This amused all the guests in the studio, including Abu Walid himself, and the host commented that this 'technical glitch' was 'very decent and praiseworthy.' The amusing clip was well-received by many Syrians who shared it on social media platforms, commenting, 'Um Walid is summoning Abu Walid live on air'.
