Hezbollah, Iran launch rocket attacks as tensions rise in Mideast

CRASH. >> Brian: NICE. 17 MINUTES AFTER THE HOUR. FOX NEWS ALERT. AMERICAN TROOPS ARE HURT AFTER A ROCKET ATTACK ON AL-ASAD AIR BASE YESTERDAY. >> Lawrence: TREY YINGST JOINS US LIVE FROM ISRAEL PORT CITY OF AFEE A. HE IS LIVE WITH US RIGHT NOW. HEY, TREY. >> Trey: GOOD MORNING. I ADOPT TO START WITH BREAKING NEWS. ISRAEL BREAKS ATTACK IRAN AND PROBLEMS YS. HEZBOLLAH IN SOUTHERN LEBANON JUST LAUNCHED A ROCKET AND DRONE ATTACK INTO NORTHERN ISRAEL. JUST A FEW MILES FROM WHERE WE ARE STANDING RIGHT NOW. ACCORDING TO REPORTS FROM FIRST RESPONDERS ONE CRITICALLY WOUNDED AND TAKEN TO A LOCAL HOSPITAL. GIVES YOU A SENSE WHILE ISRAEL IS PREPARING FOR LARGER CONFLICT. THEY ARE STILL BEING ATTACKED ON A DAILY BASIS. ALSO FOLLOWING THIS OTHER UPDATE OUT OF THE REASONABLE OVERNIGHT AND IRAN BACKED MILITIA TARGETING A BASE IN WESTERN IRAQ THAT HOUSES AMERICAN FORCES. MULTIPLE U.S. SERVICE MEMBERS INJURED IN THAT A ATTACK. LAUNCHED BY A MILITIA BACKED BY IRAN. THE TIMING OF THAT INCIDENT COULDN'T HAVE OCCURRED AT WORSE MOMENT AS TENSIONS RISE ACROSS THE MIDDLE EAST. PRESIDENT BIDEN WAS AT THE WHITE HOUSE BEING UPDATED ON THE EXPECTED IRANIAN ATTACK THAT IS PLANNED AGAINST ISRAEL WHEN THAT TOOK PLACE. THE COMMANDER-IN-CHIEF POSTING TO X THAT HE WAS BRIEFED AND THERE ARE EFFORTS TO DE-ESCALATE THE SITUATION. GOING ON TO SAY WE ALSO DISCUSSED THE STEPS WE ARE TAKING TO DEFEND OUR FORCES AND RESPOND TO ANY ATTACK AGAINST OUR PERSONNEL IN A MANNER AND PLACE OF OUR CHOOSING. THE QUESTION NOW IS HOW THE UNITED STATES WILL RESPOND AND WHAT ROLE THE MEASURES WILL PLAY IN DEFENDING ISRAEL. IRANIAN ISRAEL BRIEFED FOREIGN MINISTERS YESTERDAY AND DO PLAN TO STRIKE ISRAEL IN THE RESPONSE TO THE KILLING OF HAMAS POLITICAL LEADER IF TEHRAN. THIS AS THE WAR IN GAZA GRINDS ON AND FOLLOWING A NEW DEVELOPMENT ABOUT THE UNITED NATIONS. THE U.N. ANNOUNCED YESTERDAY IT HAD FIRED NINE STAFFERS FOR EXPECTED INVOLVEMENT IN THE OCTOBER 7TH MASSACRE. RIGHT NOW SIMPLY NO DIPLOMATIC SOLUTIONS ON THE TABLE TO END THE WAR GHID GAZA. GEE ESCALATE WITH HEZBOLLAH AND LEBANON MONDAY AA VOID A LARGER ATTACK FROM IRAN. MEANING ISRAEL IS BRACING FOR UNCERTAIN AND DANGEROUS DAYS AHEAD. GUYS? >> Brian: TREY, WHY WOULD THEY LIST? WHY DO YOU THINK IRAN -- WOULD WHY THEY LIST POSSIBLE SITES THEY WERE GOING TO HIT AHEAD OF TIME? WHAT ARE THEY TRYING TO DO? >> Trey: TRY TO PLAY A GAME OF PSYCHOLOGIC WARFARE WITH THE ISRAELI PEOPLE. AND ISRAELIS ARE DOING THE SAME. THEY HAVE MADE VERY CLEAR IF THE IRANIANS TARGET CIVILIAN AREAS OF ISRAEL, IN CITIES LIKE HAIFA, WHERE WE ARE AT TODAY OR TEL AVIV OR JERUSALEM. THE ISRAELIS WILL RESPOND STRIKING IRAN AGAIN. AND REMEMBER, IRAN LAUNCHED AN ATTACK AGAINST ISRAEL IN APRIL. FIRING MORE THAN 300 DRONES AND MISSILES AT THIS COUNTRY. AND WHILE MANY WERE INTERCEPTED BY COALITION FORCES. THE ISRAELIS STRUCK BACK AGAINST A VERY INTERESTING TARGET. AIR DEFENSE SYSTEMS OUTSIDE OF IRAN'S NUCLEAR FACILITY LARGEST ONE IN THE COUNTRY. THIS WAS TO SEND A MESSAGE. ISRAELIS KNOW EXACTLY WHERE THEY ARE DEVELOPING THEIR NUCLEAR PROGRAM AND IT'S IN THEIR SIGHTS. >> Steve: ALL RIGHT. TRAY. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. THE UNITED STATES IS SENDING A MESSAGE AS WELL THE USS LA BOON AND "U.S.S. COLE" HAVE BEEN REPOSITIONED IN THE RED SEA AND THE IN TEDDY ROOSEVELT AIRCRAFT CARRIER GROUP IS MOVING TOWARDS ISRAEL AS WELL. THE BIG STICK. >> Ainsley: THAT GOES BACK TO THE QUESTION WHY ISN'T KAMALA HARRIS, WHY ISN'T JOE BIDEN -- WHY AREN'T YOU HEARING FROM THEM WHEN W. THAT YOU WILL HAPPENING ON IN THE MIDDLE EAST? >> Steve: WE GOT A TWEET PICTURE. >> Ainsley: MARK IT DOWN HOW MANY THOUSANDS OF POINTS SINCE LAST WEDNESDAY MIDDLE EAST BRINK OF A WAR. IRAN BOMBED OUR MILITARY BASE IN IRAQ. HOW IS IT OKAY THAT WE HAVEN'T HEARD FROM THE PRESIDENT? HOW IS IT THAT THE WHITE HOUSE CORRESPONDENTS AREN'T PUBLICLY CALLING FOR THIS? >> Brian: UNBELIEVABLE? DON'T YOU WANT TO DO YOUR JOB? AREN'T YOU FRUSTRATED THAT YOU CAN'T GET ANY QUESTIONS OFF. DON'T YOU WANT TO KNOW WHY THE FLIP-FLOPS. NO CLAMMER MORE PRESIDENT BIDEN TO DO A PRESS CONFERENCE UNTIL THE TERRIBLE DEBATE. >> Lawrence: ALL THIS INFORMATION YESTERDAY TEASING ON EVERY PROGRAM THAT THERE WAS GOING TO BE THIS BIG NATIONAL SECURITY MEETING. EVERYBODY WAS GOING BE MEETING. THE COUNSEL GOING TO BE IN THE BUNKER LAYING IT OUT IN THE SITUATION ROOM. WE ASSUMED THERE WOULD BE SOME TYPE OF PUBLIC STATEMENT AFTER? ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. NO PRESS CONFERENCE, NO RED LINE FOR AMERICA. IT LOOKS LIKE THE ONLY PEOPLE THAT ARE GETTING THE PRESSURE IS THE ISRAELIS RIGHT NOW SAYING JUST GET A DEAL DONE. >> Steve: WELL, YESTERDAY, THE PRESS SECRETARY DIDN'T EVEN HAVE HER NORMAL GAGGLE. SHE DOES HAVE ONE PLANNED FOR THIS AFTERNOON. >> Brian: ALWAYS SO INFORMATIVE. >> Steve: INTERESTING TO SEE WHAT THEY HAVE TO SAY ABOUT THE TWO THINGS ABOUT WHAT IS GOING ON IN IRAN AND ALSO WHAT IS
