Fox News reporter Benjamin Hall is injured while reporting from Ukraine

Fox News reporter Benjamin Hall was injured while covering the war in Ukraine, the network announced Monday.

Fox News Media CEO Suzanne Scott said in a statement that Hall, a correspondent for the network who's been covering the Russian invasion and a father of three daughters, was wounded while reporting outside the capital Kyiv.

"We have a minimal level of details right now, but Ben is hospitalized and our teams on the ground are working to gather additional information as the situation quickly unfolds," Scott said. She did not provide more information about the severity of Hall's injuries.

Shaun Tandon, president of the State Department Correspondents' Association, said the organization was "horrified" to learn that Hall had been injured in the field.

but I'm not familiar with this guy.

But the Fox News ground reporters in war zones have usually been pretty good and don't spew right wing crap
