Watch as Missiles Fly Over Fox Reporter's Shoulder as He Breaks for Cover During Live Shot
Fox News reporter Trey Yingst 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 Yingst 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,” Yingst said as flashes in the sky indicated that Iranian missiles were being intercepted. Yingst later said an explosion took place directly overhead.
Yingst 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,” Yingst said. “Pull up the tripod. Let’s move inside.”

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.”
