States now has Indications Iran is imminent with a ballistic Missile Attack against israel. It could come as early as today. Staff at the u. S. Embassy In Jerusalem have been warned to shelter in place. An attack on iran would be a major escalation in a region on heightened alert as israel forces cases out raid in southern lebanon. They went in the limited Ground Movement against those terrorists. Theyre trying to go after the iranianbacked terror group, hezbollah. This is outnumbered. This is Harris Faulkner with emily Compagno And Kayleigh mcenany and also here, sheryl casone. The port strike, Cant Wait to get her expertise on that. And Fox News contributor, Ari Fleischer is here. Lets start with our own Trey Yingst reporting from northern israel. Trey . Overnight was with Israelly Forces as they entered southern leb lebanon. It was the first time since 2006 that israel has been on the ground publicly. They warned civilians in more that 20 different ill have villages and towns to evacuate. This country is bracing for a possible ballistic Missile Attack by iran and maybe proxies like hezbollah and the houthis in yemen. We know the u. S. Embassy is warning personnel to stay closer to shelters and residents are urged to stay home and close to their mamads, the he brew word for shelter. Israels Top Spokesman is warning of an imminent Missile Attack from iran, which would be larger than what We Saw in april that includes 300 ballistic Missile And Cruise missiles with drones. Theres consultations taking place right now among the Defense Echelon of israel about what comes next and what a possible Israel Response would be to a largescale Missile Attack from iran. Last weekend the israelis take out the hezbollah leader. Theres concerns that iran will retaliate for the strike in beirut over the weekend. Harris and the United States is not evacuating americans from lebanon. The u. S. Not getting them out and for does it have any plans to send evacuation flights to rescue those as the conflict with israel intensifies. This part, trey, the latest public data shows that 86,000 americans living in lebanon as of 2022. Thats a lot of people to move if youve got to do it quickly. How many times do we have to learn this lesson . We know that this is the case. Im glad were talking about this. Its a really important part of the story. Theres Tens Of Thousands of americans still in lebanon as this war expands. And theres two questions at hand. One, when will the United States start to refer to this as a war between israel and hezbollah. Its erupting and has erupted the past year. Now the israelis are strikes the southern capitol and on the ground. The question is what are they going to do with the Tens Of Thousands of americans looking to evacuate. Weve seen a number of people online talking about the fact that they have reached out to the state department, telling them theres no flights. All the flights are booked and getting cancelled. Americans say well reimburse you for a loan, not to pay for the flights but just to offer people a loan for Plane Tickets that Cost Thousands that are not even available at this points. Its a major catastrophe. Its something that the biden administration will have to address as the war develops and the conflict expands in the next few hours. And Vice President Kamala Harris is all over the country on the move at campaign events. Well hold our breath. Thanks, trey. Great reporting as always. I always look to see how we left americans behind. We left them behind in afghanistan. We knew this was a problem when israel first got attacked a year ago next week now. October 7. Got attacked by the hamas savages. We needed to get americans out of Harms Way at that point as israel went to war. Yet people have the same problem. They cant get out, cant afford to take the flights. We were slows and send boats and things to get them. Come on. My hunch in is the faith in israel from the u. S. Government, that they say Israel Wont get closer to the american population which is more based and beirut and other northern locations and precise bombing abilities of israel to hit the Military Targets without going after civilian neighborhoods. That is likely what is happening here. Thats otherwise i think the United States would have tried to evacuate americans. What about the americans in israel . Similar thinking. They believe theyre safe there because of israels military defensive capabilities. Otherwise, youd have more americans to evacuate from the state of israel. Look, i was told by a Military Authority in position to know after the iranian attack with 300 missiles that iran didnt use their best against israel. They used older technology. If thats the Case And Iran has more sophisticated weaponry, and they do, this will be a test for Israels Defense System and americas Defense System. I suspect Israel And America are up to the test. Harris they like to take people hostages. So im concerned about americans on the ground. Not because Israel Cant Fight tremendously well, but because hezbollah is dirty and their terrorists. I dont want anybody being taken. The second is the Arrow System that handles the higher altitude weapons. Congressman mast was telling me about this. They may have to use something more than the Iron Dome. Iran likely has some things we havent seen yet. They do. Israel unfortunately, yes, they have the support of the United States and the support of the western world but its not the full support of the United States. We should be unequivocally standing with israel, not saying Cease Fire but standing with israel. Were not even at the Oneyear Anniversary of October 7. More than 1,000 citizens ripped from their home. Ill never forget Sherry Bevis holding their boys, who we dont know where they are. First birthday in captivity. You look at northern israel. You look over the border at hezbollah. They were planning another October 7 style attack. For our country to say Cease Fire now . No. Defend your borders. Protect yourselves. Stand with this country. My gosh, as iran is looking to target them . Guess what . Iran will target you next. Theyre not stopping until theres a commanderinchief who they will not stop. We have a president at a very scary time in our Countrys History and our world who we dont know what we doing. Harris and the Vice President wants his job. I dont know what the Foreign Policy is on this. Shes too shy to say as you pointed out how much she supports israel. She wants that uncommitted crowd in minnesota and other places. Ill quote the Wall Street Journal right now. We need to stay with our ally, israel and the response for europe and israel, put more pressure on iran and its proxy network. One thing that iran doesnt want to lose, 40 Billion in annual revenue that they get from oil experts. Oil has just spiked in last hour. Its up 4 and Defense Talks are up. We are ready to go. Harris what is putting pressure on that . Because we know that this is our ally and we have already heard from the white House Official that say were going to stand with our ally, that is a military sending more troops to the Middle East. That might more might and power of the u. S. Military. The iran story, watch out. I dont think that they want to jeopardize their exports. Thats the money right now. Harris emily . Emily weve seen that in the population versus the old guard. That the Middle East wants to move forward. They want to recognize the state of israel from a business perspective. Weve talked about this. The view of the totally antisemitic approach to the extermination of israel and the jewish people, that fanatical viewpoint is not shared but our allies. Thats why its important for our administration to say that we stand with israel. Just last week the United States and france proposed a Cease Fire resolution that Netanyahu Resoundly rejected. This is on the heels of us sending more troops to the region. We have a lot of stuff happening in the Middle East. So when the Islamic Republic says theyre going to have this imminent attack, what will get the attention of our administration . Thus far israel has decimated the leadership of hezbollah. Israel has done it all without the support on our part. Harris and biden tried to keep it to the Storm Yesterday at that news conference. Questions came on this. He couldnt answer it. He wouldnt answer. He walked out. Kamala harris just skips it. I dont know what her Foreign Policy looks like. Shes not shope us. I did go to her website. Its lean, really lean. Were continuing to monitor the Middle East around the globe as you know. Iran might strike israel at any time today were told. A live report on the white House Response next. Our story begins more than 65 years ago, inside an abandoned chicken coop. Where our founder discovered a retired teacher living. No home. No health care. So she said no to this Injustice And Yes to transforming lives. Its this drive, this compassion that inspired aarp. Today, we empower people to choose how they live as they age. As a wise friend and fierce defender, we advocate for better health, financial security, and stronger communities. Aarp. Join us in making a difference.

Has indications that iran could launch an imminent ballistic Missile Attack on israel. The White House is warning that a direct attack against israel will carry severe consequences for tehran and the u. S. Is actively supporting defensive preparations to defend israel from this attack. Peter doocy is live with more on this breaking story. Peter . Kayleigh, we just heard from the president s top diplomat as officials try to figure out what iran is about to do. Were of Course Tracking events in the Middle East very closely. The United States is committed to israels defense. Were watching developments as i said very carefully at this moment. A senior u. S. Official is telling us the United States has indications that iran is preparing to imminently launch a ballistic Missile Attack against israel. We are actively supporting defensive preparations to defend israel against this attack. A direct Military Attack from iran against israel will carry severe consequences for iran. This white House Posture to israel that is a balancing act. They want celebrate preemptive strikes against terror leaders. Israel has their right to defend themselves against hezbollah. Were not shedding tears over a terrorist that was killed. That terrorist has american blood on his hands. Were not going to shed a tear over that. Every time President Biden gets asked about question about what iran may or may not be planning, he says dont. This imminent attack is the latest example that iran does not listen to him. Back to you. Kayleigh we may need more than the one syllable warnings. Thanks, peter doocy. We have Breaking News. We go to Trey Yingst in israel with the latest. Trey . Yeah, good afternoon, guys. We have Breaking News out of israel near to the city of Tel Aviv and jaffah. Theres been a Terror Attack. Multiple people shot. First responders are currently on the scene. Initial reports indicate that there were two gunmen involved. Were gathering more information about the attack in real time. I can tell you that the location, it took place is a very populated, popular area next to cafes and restaurants. Theres videos circulated online that we will not show here on television that appear to show many bodies next to a Light Rail Station. This is a station that was actually newlybuilt, in an area where many young people in Tel Aviv like to hang out, close to the beach. An indication that the Security Situation right now across israel continues to deteriorate as the country is not only bracing for the possible ballistic Missile Attack from iran, earlier today people heading to shelters after a Rocket Attack coming from lebanon. The i ran backed Group Hezbollah there. Now this developing news out of jaffah just south of Tel Aviv with a Shooting Attack with ten victims being treated on the scene. Kayleigh trey, as i listen to you speak, i just finished watching a 11minute Video from the Spokes American from idf. He gave new information that wasnt aware of that hezbollah was planning an October 7th like attack before this limited Scale Invasion that israel did in to lebanon. He actually had a name for it. It was called Operation Conquer the galilee. They uncovered this plan. When they went into lebanon, they found tunnels under childrens beds. This is very early in this attack. But any indication to who these militants are . This comes from the backdrop that we got from israel overnight. This Shooting Attack that is developing in jaffah near Tel Aviv could have been committed by anyone. In the past when We Saw similar Terror Attacks taking place in Tel Aviv, the economic capitol of israel, they have come from jaffah and the east bank. So theres no indication that this is linked to the situation Inside Gaza or in lebanon. I do want to just read you this statement. Again, this is a developing situation that is coming in right now. A Police Spokesman sending this message saying a report was received a short time ago regarding a Shooting Incident in Tel Aviv. Initial suspicious of motive is terror. Details to follow. Again, the initial reports from the israeli media indicate there could be up to ten victims and possibly two gunman. Again, this Shooting Attack taking place in a popular Area South of Tel Aviv in a newly built Light Rail Station next to restaurantses and cafes. Its five minutes from my apartment and i often run along this area. Gives you a sense of the Security Situation on the ground and how unpredictable it is. It also comes just minutes after rear Admiral Lagari issued a directive to the residents of Tel Aviv to remain close to shelters because theyre fearing a ballistic Missile Attack attack that could come from iran at my moment. Ive been covering this story for six years. This moment in particular is some of the most extensive Breaking News out of the Middle East that ive witnessed. The country is preparing for the possibility for the Situation Unraveling even further. The israelis are Fighting On seven different fronts. The war continues Inside Gaza. As We Saw last night during our inbed with the israeli Commando Unit in southern lebanon, theyre fighting Hezbollahs Ability of an attack from iran. Weve seen efforts to attack by iran backed Iraqi And Shiia malitias. You have cells in the West Bank and the houthi rebels in yemen that are backed by iran. So the situation is unprecedented. When you talk about the level of Security Preparedness for this country, the air Defense Systems are on high alert, but u. S. Officials and israeli officials fear that may not be enough tonight. That is part of the reason theyre warning civilians to stay close to shelters. Emily trey, its emily. Not withstanding the seven fronts that israel is Fighting On, was there a Call To Action that is leading israel now attempting to defend on these random and horrifying Terror Attacks . Were seeing and youre right devastating footage of the bodies by the train station. I want to take you back almost a year in the early days following the October 7th massacre. The statements that came out from hamas political wing and also their military wing. They were encouraging people across the Arab World to take action on their own, to launch Lone Wolf attacks against israel, against jews around the world. Its the reason that the Security State not just here but also at israeli embassies has been so high. For the current conflict developing between israel and hezbollah, we heard similar calls from hezbollah leadership despite the fact that many have been taken out in strikes the past two weeks. The sentiment is still there. One thing that the Israelis Havent seen develop over the past year and it was always a fear according to the Defense Minister when i would meet with him and other top israeli officials, we would start to see more Terror Attacks unfolding across israel. These could be from east jerusalem, come from the West Bank, enfrom jaffah. What were witnessing Unfolding Tonight i want to look at my phone for updates. The local Red Cross of israel is saying theres no indication that the gunmen were neutralized. So this is an ongoing situation thats unfolding. Apparently according to initial reports, they were not neutralized at the scene. This is an ongoing story developing south of Tel Aviv. Harris the great connection there, the internet, im seeing what youre looking at, too. Theres early reports when the video was dropping even before what was happening any details and the israeli police have just confirmed the Shooting Attack that you just reported. Theyre talking about the number of casualties, that sort of thing. It was reported that one of the terrorists was neutralized. Now were seeing that that may not be the case or the possibility that there were more than two. Whatever the situation is, theyre on high alert there. If they were going to get in the Storm Bunkers storm. Forgive me. War bunkers, now might be the time to do that. This is now what would happen a Above Ground next to the new War Zone between lebanon and israel. Theyre fighting terrorists. Terrorists will blow stuff and shoot a lot of people. What is the talk on the ground about taking cover even faster . I want to give you a little bit of Tik Tok of how these situations unfold. We responded to so many of these attacks over the years reporting here on the ground. I remember just last year there was a Ramming Attack in Tel Aviv. A European Tourist was killed. We arrived at the scene there when it was on the boardwalk where people go for runs. Very close to with this attack unfolded. Police investigate to try to quickly gather information about where the attacker came from. The concern is that they may not be acting alone and could be affiliated with other groups like hamas or islamic jihad. If they conduct a Shooting Attack in jaffah, they could be trying to conduct a suicide bombing. Earlier in the year, there was an attempted Suicide Attack in Tel Aviv. The attacker detonated early. Gives you a sense of how fluid the situation is on the ground and when you speak with israeli Defense Officials and Security Officials in Tel Aviv, they always tell you the same thing. They say if the public knew how many of these attacks that we thwarted before they happened, people would never leave their homes. Theres so many attempts. The intelligence is so high that they often will stop them before they begin. As we are following this developing story and i do want to read you the updates im getting, theres one Police Source Texting me and our internal updates, theres four of the wounded in critical condition according to first responders on the scene. We do expect to get new numbers on if there are any confirmed fatalities following this Shooting Attack. We saw the video. There were people on the ground that were not moving. Just a horrific scene just south of Tel Aviv, israels second largest city. Kayleigh authorities were able to say quickly this was a terror incidence. I imagine part might have to do timing. They were anticipating an attack from iran that we just covered that. And also the location. I mean, this is jaffah. This you mentioned just minutes from your apartment. A lot of young people here. This is a different setting than the parts in southern israeli. This is intended to make horror. Yeah, the Map Breakdown is important while were covering this story. Jaffah is a prime example of co coex coexistence. How israels and palestinians can go Side By side and go to the beach together and not be at war. And there suis often attention that erupts here. Very rarely do attacks unfold there. Very rarely is it the Focal Point of tension across the reason. These often reserved for jerusalem and other places. I want to read you the updates as they come in. These are initial reports according to first responders on the scene. Initial reports indicate that two attackers in jaffah opened fire at people at the new Light Rail Train in the Tel Avivjaffah area. Photos of the attackers with m16s and some initial im going to look at this image here. Im going to describe it to you. I know exactly the store theyre walking out of. Theres a store that these two gunmen are walking out of. They appear to be caught on security camera. In front of them, theres someone laying in front of a trash can not moving. This is a very active area. This is a new Light Rail that was just recently completed. It has stopped throughout Tel Aviv. You can go from the heart of Tel Aviv to jaffah. Its a place where theres many young people with cafes and restaurantses. Its not close to any of the security installations. Its on the other end of the city. Its not near any high tech buildings. A very quiet area where people will go to relax on the weekend or spend an evening. So to have an attack unfold at this location, the attackers likely knew this was a soft target. I can also tell you one other detail about this part of the city. Its actually very close to a Police Station just down the road. So the initial video that were seeing shows some police on mopeds responding to the scene. An indication even if they get there quickly, they wont be there at that very moment. As a result, more images coming in confirming there were two gunmen conducting this attack. Harris at least two. As i pointed out, the early reports and some are continuing that one person has been neutralized. Well see as it shakes out. I want to be sensitive to the details that you and i are both gathering from other journalists and these two on the screen what we can glean from photographs. I want to be really clear, were seeing a lot of unconfirmed and at least we can independently confirmed these pictures. What were seeing are the two that people are describing on the ground inside jaffah, which technically is so close its Tel Aviv. And theres one. Kayleigh and i pulled it up on different devices at different times showing two men again, it could be more than two. We dont know. They are very close to the subject that they are firing on. Were talking about an unsurvivability situation. Go ahead, trey. There are initial reports of sirens sounding near jerusalem. Just to give you another update on the Security Situation as it unfolds here. I do want to look at my phone here. Theres a few People Texting two sources at the same time. One moment here. Yeah, gives you a sense of how things are unraveling here. You have this situation unfolding on the Ground South of Tel Aviv as security forces. Here it comes right now. There are Rocket Sirens. We dont know where theyre coming from. Im going to be very careful with this information. Im going to just read out what is happening in real time. Right now Rocket Alerts are sounding on the eastern side of israel and one of the alerts is next to the dead sea hotels. We dont know where this attack is coming from. In previous iranian attacks, sirens were sounding in those locations. I want to be very careful. We dont know if this is the attack from iran. The fact that sirens are sounding in this area indicates that there are also near demona, close to the nuclear facility in the desert. In the past these areas have been targeted by the iranians when they launched that attack in april. We dont know if this is the attack from iran. In a matter of two or three minutes i can answer that. Just gives you a sense how quickly things are developing on the ground. The Rear Admiral for the israeli Military Warning about 30 minutes ago of an imminent Missile Attack. This could be coming further east or from the north. Theres no way to know in real time. Harris there was something that our guest, Cheryl Casone said earlier, that is iran really doesnt want to fight a war. Were seeing possibilities for how you use your terrorists without having to get involved. You do it from the inside out. Ari, i want to know your thoughts. Trey, stay with us. Ari yeah, i keep thinking if we had been told in the United States that if a missile was going to hit new York City and were all bracing a gunman shot people in times square, could you imagine what would be happening in new York City . Look whats going on in israel. Israel, the state born out of the Blood Path of the holocaust, they were attacked by six countries. They had war in 1948, 56, 73. Israel has always gone through difficult times. Its people are the toughest people on earth. These things affect the israelis, but it doesnt rattle them. Doesnt make them hide or think we cant win. It does the opposite. It makes them say that we have to take action to protect our people. This is the story of israeli and jewish history for thousands of years around why israel and the just have survived. Its going to get the sentiments that will get israel through it right now. Israel has defensive capabilities and used to dealing with terrorism no matter how bad it gets. Harris this judeochristian makes of the United States better be on phones telling we you got you. We dont need the pictures. It better be happening. Trey . This is Breaking News right now, harris. An israeli military source telling Fox News that a short while ago iran launched missiles at israel. That is all the information that we have right now. Im just going to read you again the text that i just received from this source. It says that a short while ago, missiles were launched from iran to israel. An indication that the sirens that were sounding in the eastern part could have been from an iranian missile. Also an indication that just as were talking here, sirens are sounding in Tel Aviv, in jaffa across this country. A Missile Attack is underway as were speaking and well continue to stay alive here and update you real time as things unfold. The latest information that i have right now according to a source in the israeli military a short while ago, iran launched missiles at israel. As we speak, sirens are sounding across the central part of this country. Cheryl trey, i wanted to ask, the reports with the iranian attack was imminent, what did we have reports in term of the United States . Theres Fighter Strike groups there, Carrier Strike groups. We know more troops were moved monday. What happened to them . Let me just im going to answer a different question here. I want to talk about what you just saw on your screen there. Two things are happening here. First, im going to talk about what is happening in jaffa in the northern part of the country. We can hear israeli Fighter Jets overhead. You saw the Camera Point up to the sky there. If israel is intercepting ballistic missiles that are fired from iran, they will not be using the Iron Dome. The Iron Dome is reserved for smaller range Rocket Fire. They will use David Sling or more likely the arrow 3 missile Defense System. The arrow 3 was used back in april. We were standing in Tel Aviv and we watched the Missile Defense take place in real time. Some of the missiles were intercepted outside of israeli territory. Others made it to israeli airspace and were intercepted by israels missile Defense System, the Arrow System. The system was developed by a man named danny gold. Danny gold is the mastermind behind the israeli defense arsenal. He thought through how to intercept this fire coming from other countries. The israelis have been preparing for the possibility of what were watching unfold today in multifront attack at the same time. Over the past hour, 1 1 2 hours, the israelis have seen Rocket Fire coming from lebanon and now Missile Fire coming from iran. Harris this is what we talked about, trey, in terms of how different fronts. I had congressman brian mast on that served with the idf forces an an american citizen after October 7th. He had done it previously for years coming out of his college. He said with us part of his personal journey. What he said about these missiles and you heard ari say it, too, there will be things that we havent seen them necessarily use at all or maybe not just a lot. We remember the Compromise Position that the barrage of missiles following October 7 with iran, We Saw the Iron Dome in need of some help. What youre saying is that at that time they did utilize the arrow 3 missile Defense System. Do we know the capability, the restoration of the Iron Dome . We have something here . Go, trey. What is it . Come here. Harris We Saw it. Point up there. Point up there. You see straight to the sky . Harris does the Iron Dome catch that or is that a jet . Do i still have you . We can see what you see. Tell your photographer hes doing a great job. What are we looking at . Okay. We dont know exactly what were looking at here. Looks like an intercepter. Because were seeing them from here doesnt mean theyre targeting the city of jaffa. You can see that across your screen. Its going up. See it from the skyline . Randle, point to the Sky Line that is likely the aero Defense System in action. Youre watching this unfold in real time. Im going to talk to our security here and see if he can get me the location of where any of these ballistic missiles are headed. Im just going to hold this phone up. Actually, Let Me In Real Time here, lets take a Beat Off of the Sky Line. You see that right there . You got it. Actually yep. Roll with that. Pan up to the left. Youll see possibly an interception here. Just wait. I can see off in the distance, too, a number of other interceptions taking place. Im looking at a map of the red alerts sounds. This is a massive the right there. This is a huge ballistic Missile Attack coming from iran right now. You can see off in the distance there. Harris trey, can you hear me . Make sure that youre in a safe location. If you need toe confirm youre with me. Can you hear me . You can. I need to know that you can hear me. Okay. I got you. I got you back. Harris i need to know youre in a safe location and that you can move away when necessary. Now we see several objects over where you are exploding. Watch your back. If you need to step back, well move on and come back. Trey, Take Care of you and your photographer. Yep. Were with you. Im going to give instructions to many i crew. You talk for a little bit, harris. Harris you do what you have to do. Were going to Nate Foy in Tel Aviv. Can we get him . Did i lose you guys . Can i listen to the anchors. Harris nate, do you have me . Were on the air. Yeah, i have you, harris. Harris hold on a second. The reason i came to you, our guys on the ground are watching a lot of incoming. This is jaffa. I know youre not there. Were going to keep this on the screen. They can position a camera with all of them not being by the window. Theres a lot coming in over jaffa right now. What we werent understanding is whether or not the Iron Dome what is happen Something Nothing is hitting the ground. Wait, wait. That might change. We have some kind of contact there. I dont know, nate. I know that you have the ability to tell us whats going on from even Tel Aviv. You have the shooting that was going on not far from there. Youre on our screen now. Take it away. Update us on the terrorist shooting. What a situation happening right now. I want to show you where we are. Were down in the shelter in the hotel right now. One thing i want to point out, hair wrist, take a look at this family. This man and his two young daughters playing on the ground cheerful as ballistic missiles are raining down on israel, southern israeli, central israeli, jerusalem and the Tel Aviv area. Looks like we have two dozen people in here right now. It takes 12 minutes for a ballistic missile to launch from iran to israel. As you can see on your screen, its happening right now. Were just waiting for the impact. Obviously were hoping that theres no impact and all of these missiles and drones and everything that iran is launching get shot down. Only time will tell. I cant see the pictures. You can. You mentioned the shooting, harris. Its being investigated as a terror related attack. Its unfolding right now. These details will likely change. Several people were hurt. At least four serious injuries in jaffa. Just so you know, if you can still hear me and i can no longer hear you. If you ask a question after this actually i do have you, harris. Harris nate, we have sirens going off now. This is jaffa. What with were hoping hang with us if you can, nate. We have to talk about whats on the screen and what were hearing. The sirens where you are, you can hear sound, too. In jaffa, we want to make sure that nothing is making contact with the ground. I cant assure the public of that right now. We know a Dome System is engaged. We dont know if its more after a high profile, high Altitude Attack from iran on israel so that they would use more than the Iron Dome and lean on that arrow Defense System. Whatever it is, israel is under attack by iran. Iran said it. The United States knew that it was imminent. At least in the last hour, our reporting ramped up on this. We knew it was coming. Just like when iran attacked israel a few months ago, they are hitting far more inside the country than previously. That was a first. What were seeing is a continuation of the first in the history of attacks from iran on israel. Were also seeing something different in terms of how much there is. We dont know when The End is. We know moments before by Trey Yingst, there was and you just heard Nate Foy say what is being investigated as a Terror Attack by at least two gunmen on the ground in an area where theres a lot of cafes and restaurants within the zone of Tel Aviv. Around Tel Aviv. So listen to how quiet that got. Were prayerful that this has ended. We have no way of knowing that. That preceded what were seeing now. What trey said is, oftentimes they hit from different directions and in different ways. Trey, if you can hear me, exactly what you forecast is what is happening now. That youd see something like a Terror Attack on the ground and that would cause commotion and that would potentially cause injuries and death. Then youd see citizens hit in a different way. From iran. That was a lot. Tell us what it was like from your perspective and thank god youre safe. Im hoping we didnt see contact from those ballistic missiles coming from iran. Have you heard anything with regard to that . I dont know at this point. We couldnt see anywhere south of here. Were looking north and northeast. Initial reports indicate i just want to show you if my Camera Man can see the alerts here. You can see how many alerts went off across the country in real time. Nearly the entirety of israel covered with Rocket Sirens sounding. Remember, this is a country with a population over Nine Million people. The majority of israels are in Bomb Shelters following this ballistic Missile Attack, which appears to be according to initial reports around 100 ballistic missiles. Explosions heard across not only jaffa where we are but Tel Aviv, israels second largest city. You heard from our correspondent there on the ground, Nate Foy. Were about an Hour North of where he is. Gives you a sense of how wide scale this attack was. I do want to read a Text Message that i got from a source that i got before we went on air. This is from a senior israeli Defense Official saying that were preparing and bracing for a wide scale attack. Thats what were seeing unfold right now. I want to give you a sense of what this is like compared to the attack in april. Because this is very important in terms of what the possible israeli response may be and what the future of the region looks like. In april, there was more headsup for the israelis to prepare and americans to prepare. U. S. Central Command Record add response. They shot down most of the missiles outside the airspace. Some landed in open areas. There was one person wounded. We dont have any initial reports of injuries. Its too early. This is a story still unfolding as we speak. That was in april. This is very different. We should talk about ballistic missiles. The iranians, as we know, because they have been supplying missiles to russia have extensive missile capabilities. Ballistic missiles when they co from iran can arrive here in about 12 minutes. Unlike in april when drones were launched ahead of time to give not only the Israelis But Coalition force as headsup that there possibly would be a ballistic Missile Attack and cruise Missile Attack to follow, this time the attack happened very quickly and it targeted nearly the entirety of this country. The iranians will not be able to say that they were only targeting Military Installations or bases or intelligence headquarters. This was a Missile Attack that targeted the entirety of israel. So the question is now how the israelis will respond. This will not go unanswered. Remember how we got here. We got here following a year of conflict, directly between israel and iranian proxies, not just in gaza but in lebanon, about 17 miles from here with irans largest proxy of hezbollah. Last weekend, the Secretary General was killed for hezbollah. Were in unchartered territory. We dont know what comes next. We can just tell you that Tonight Israel is under attack from iran. Multiple ballistic missiles up to 100 according to initial reports were just fired at this country harris trey, its very important what you just said in terms of comparing this to what We Saw from iran attacking in april. That was about 250 to 300 ballistic missiles. As i reported a few minutes ago, that was a first. We had no idea that they would fire that many at that across the hours that they did. This seems like it was more and faster. And i can only lean on you from where you are in your sources to verify that. I want to make this for the Viewing Population now, if theyre just tuning in. At 12 34, iran hit israel with at least 100 ballistic missiles. The Iron Dome seems to have held. Some of the missiles did hit the ground in some areas. We dont know. Maybe open field areas as they did in april. We wont know that for some time. We have John Roberts standing by with us, co host of America Reports. I know were getting ready to handoff to you. As we look at this, were in brand new territory now. Israel under attack by iran. It is quiet in this moment. As trey mentioned a couple moments ago, we dont know the size and the scope of this yet compared to the attack earlier this year. I do have that same Alert System having been in israel not long after October 7th that Tray And Everybody else does. Its almost like the entire country is red in terms of alerts. Youll recall the last time that iran did this, there was some 300 project times that were fired at israel. Combine the United States and jordan, the u. K. And israel, took down i think 99 of those projectiles. As you pointed out, we have seen some hit the ground. The Air Defense harris john, im going to interrupt for a second. Is this live that were watching now . I know we have the ability to show previous video. Were Hearing Sirens right now. When this happens, john, we ask that our team you heard Trey Yingst Call Out his photographer, randle. Theyre going to pull back. Well watch and listen. Lets watch. Again, clearly another attack unfolding as we speak. Were just going to watch this play out here. Look at the Sky Lines going to me wait. Look at the Sky Line here. You can see again, harris, this is jaffa, israel, the northern part of the country. Interceptions that are taking place right now in real time. Coming off of the skyline. The real issue here is that israels Air Defense certainly could get overwhelmed with this amount of fire. Im looking at the amount of ballistic missiles that are being fired. This is a second wave of attacks coming from iran. Harris you talk about that and John Roberts is still with us, america helped out israel with the Iron Dome and do some repairs to The System. What is a duplicate what is the Backup System . That arrow 3 Defense System, John Roberts, really is there to handle the higher Altitude Type of incoming. What type of redundancy do they have for the Iron Dome . They have David Sling and The System you mentioned. They have the Iron Dome. They all work in concert with each other and seem to work very effectively. We have a number of naval assets in the Eastern Mediterranean and the persian gulf. I was at a military charity dinner. Seated with me is the joint chairman of the chiefs of staff. They didnt seem preoccupied with anything. So this is clearly just popped up in the last 18 hours or so. The capabilities of the United States combined with israel, with our allies in the Middle East as happened in april when iran last attacked israel, that barely any of the missiles or drones made contact with the ground. Those that did were mostly in an area where there wasnt a lot of damage. We do see a flash of what looked like fire on the ground. These systems are designed that if the trajectory looks likes its going to hit, it will allow it to go in open ground. You dont want to waste your ammunition on projectiles that look like they wont hit a populated area. Some fall in the open ground, some fall in to the sea. Obviously the ones that hit downtown Tel Aviv, jaffa, the western part of jerusalem or other cities like that are targeted with the highest priority to get them out of the sky before they can do any damage. Harris when you talk about sitting next to the former general in the air force, now the joint chiefs, i met c. Q. Brown. A lot can be going on and they dont shake. So what they know or dont know, but theres no way that we didnt have some sort of idea that iran was going to do something. Because they told the world that they would. If we didnt learn in april that they mean it, were learning it now. We may not tell what the End Game is for them, but really ultimately it is to extinguish jews from the planet and theyre hitting israel right now. Thanks, john. See you on America Reports in a few minutes. Jennifer griffin is at the pentagon. We just talked about the joint chiefs of Staffs Chairman c. Q. Brown. What is coming out of the pentagon right now . What are you told . Thank you. Let me correct one thing that john said. The pentagon and the joint chiefs were well aware that this was coming. We knew yesterday obviously they had alerted the israelis to what they were seeing. We knew when we left Yesterday Evening that they were seeing from the air that iranian ballistic missiles were moving, the same kind of activity that they saw in april. They were expecting this. They knew almost to the hour in which this would happen. We were told it was going to happen in the 12 00 hour eastern time and it did. They have been watching this. In fact, Defense Secretary Lloyd austin had moved what were told is about double the assets in to the Middle East that they had back in april. They had sent several thousand additional troops with Air Squadrons in to the Middle East in the last 24 hours alone. Some of most of those have arrived. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin after the killing of Nasrallah And Expectation that iran would respond did send a squadron of f22s. Those Fighter Planes are across the middle least. If we look at the map of u. S. Navy assets, its quite a number. I dont know if you have that map. Harris were watching live pictures of the attack right now coming in. The Iron Dome is fully at work along with some Redundancy Systems on the left side. The right screen is a look where a suspected Terror Hit in a crowded cafe restaurant, popular area called jaffa. Our Double Screen is on this attack possibly from two didnt places as they investigate the possibility of a Terror Attack. We saw all over media right now, pictures that we cannot endly verify and many videos of at least two gunmen that were firing on people at close range. Some of the captures of the videos and pictures hard to watch. Fox is not providing the pictures as the source but were showing people what we can and talking about it. Thats why we cant see the map, jennifer. Tell us about the map. Let me just tell in the Eastern Mediterranean there are three Missile Destroyers that can help with that interception. We saw in april, the Sm 3 were used to intercept nine ballistic missiles that came in ma of the uss cole, Uss Arleigh Burke and Uss Bulkeley in the Eastern Mediterranean. The Arley Burke was used in a brawl and was successful at shooting down the ballistic missiles. Its notable we know from the idf that about 102 ballistic missiles were fired in this first lobbing of missiles into israel. If you look back in april, there were hundred ten ballistic missiles fired at israel. That was the total number of ballistic even though there were other Cruise Missiles and others. The significance of that is they probably have about 110 ballistic missile launchers. The question is, do they have more ballistic missiles capable of being loaded . Is this just the first shot, if you will . The first round . Have we seen what they can launch in terms of ballistic missiles and as you mentioned, those missile Defense Systems are very, very busy tonight and israel. Harris jennifer come at some point we will talk more about the incoming. Its quiet on that side of the screen for now. I want to concentrate on the attack of israelis who were out, many of them, at cafes and restaurants in jaffa. The beautiful cities in that part of the country. Under President Trump they moved the u. S. Embassy from Tel Aviv to jerusalem. Having covered that at the time, i can tell you that caleb Tel Aviv is vibrant from a lot of young people out who are watching to see if it was a Terror Hit. If Theres Anything to come beyond that. Meanwhile, iran is hitting israel. Our coverage of this war continues right now on America Reports. Sandra Fox News alert. We top off a brandnew hour
