Watch as Missiles Fly Over Fox Reporter’s Shoulder as He Breaks for Cover During Live Shot
Fox News reporter Trey Yingst reported from Tel Aviv amidst an attack by Iranian missiles, which were intercepted by Israel’s missile defense systems. During the live coverage, Yingst described the situation, noting that air defense systems were active and urging viewers to stay with him as the situation unfolded. He indicated that explosions were occurring above him and reported that Iranian ballistic missiles were being fired at major cities in Israel.
The report highlighted the escalating tensions between the U.S. and Iran, with President Donald Trump considering military action against Iran’s nuclear facilities. Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei warned against U.S.threats, asserting that Iran woudl not surrender. The situation in Israel and Iran has intensified, with Israeli forces conducting airstrikes on Iranian military targets in response to the missile attacks. The conflict appears to be deepening, with both sides escalating their military actions.
Fox News reporter Trey Vingst was forced to move to safety Tuesday night as Iranian missiles bombarded Tel Aviv, only to be intercepted by Israel’s missile defense system.
A clip posted by Fox News and reposted by Vingst showed him on a balcony as warning sirens sounded over Tel Aviv.
“Air defense systems are currently active over Tel Aviv,” he said.

“We’re gonna move. Stay with us. Stay with us,” Vingst said as flashes in the sky indicated that Iranian missiles were being intercepted. Vingst later said an explosion took place directly overhead.
Vingst noted that even as the United States was considering whether to join Israel, Iran was “firing on major population centers.”
“Right now there are ballistic missiles being fired at Israel’s second-largest city,” he said in another video clip posted to X.

“We are going to take some cover as this unfolds,” Vingst said. “Pull up the tripod. Let’s move inside.”
As Israel and Iran exchange attacks, President Donald Trump has reportedly been weighing whether to join Israel to attack Iran’s nuclear facilities. On Tuesday, Trump called for the unconditional surrender of Iran, according to Reuters.

That was met with scorn by Iranian supreme leader Ali Khamenei, according to ABC.
An America attack, he said, will “without a doubt will cause irreparable damage.”
“Intelligent people who know Iran and the nation and history of Iran will never speak to this nation in threatening language because the Iranian nation cannot be surrendered,” Khamenei wrote on social media platform X.

“War will be met with war, bombing with bombing, and strike with strike. Iran will not submit to any demands or dictates.”
