head to redcross.org/foxforward to contribute to the cross. >> over five million dollars viewers deflated to the cause. during the worst situation best of humanity comes out. todd: our breaking news coverage continues with "fox & friends weekend" right now. pete: we begin with a fox news alert, the deadly russian invasion of ukraine for the 18th day as missile strikes continue overnight. nine people are killed after russian airstrikes pound a military facility outside of lviv. kyiv prepares for a assault overnight. rachel: a dozen ballistic rockets raining down in iran near the u.s. con is a late in iraq.

-- consulate in iraq. no casualties were reported in the attack and no one has claimed responsibility. will: bryan llenas with the latest from the strict in iraq. we begin in lviv with jonathan hunt as russia ramps up attacks on western ukraine. jonathan. reporter: will, pete, rachel, good morning to all of you. the air raid sirens were sounding again in lviv a few minutes ago. we didn't hear subsequent explosions. we heard them six hours ago when eight missiles slammed into the yavoriv airbase. we understand 57 people were wounded in that strike, at least nine have been killed. that base also known as the international peacekeeping and security center was hosting u.s.

troops a few weeks ago, end of january, beginning of february, you see them there. they were involved in training of ukrainian forces. we're not aware of any u.s. personnel at that base when those missile strikes hit last week. as you know u.s. troops were withdrawn before this war started. the mayor of lviv sending a strong message to president biden and the nato secretary-general in the wake of this attack saying, and i quote here, joe biden, stoltenberg, the war is closer than you can imagine. you have fighters that can protect our skies, when i say ours not only you ukrainian, very soon this may lose the prefix, russia, ukrainian. stop the war. close the skies of europe. another call for a no-fly zone. it is important to point out, guys, just a dozen or so miles from the border of poland, that

strike hit. poland a full-fledged member of nato. article v of the nato treaty said an attack on one, is an attack on all. one errant missile that close to the border landing on polish territory that would bring nato directly into this war. will, pete, rachel. will: thank you, jonathan. so to, i think illustrate exactly how close jonathan was talking about, how dangerous that is, in relation to the polish border, let's go to pete he has a map that can show us. pete: that's right, guys. this is the western part of ukraine. we've been talking almost exclusively about the east. the western part is more or less humanitarian movement of people flowing out of the country. that attack he is talking about, jonathan, 12 miles from the polish border which jonathan pointed out is effective a giant refugee camp but a full member of nato. unlikely at this point vladmir

putin is attempting to encroach in poland. more likely setting preparatory attacks should there be any involvement from the countries beyond what already happened. training facility. airfields were hit yesterday on this side. again it could be preventing things from coming in. also making it more difficult for people to leave the country as well. those are airstrikes happening overnight. we want to zoom in on what is happening in the capital city of kyiv what the assault is happening. from day one i talked this double pronged assault was a big part how the russians were attempting to sprint to kyiv and it never happened. they are encircling taken over small towns including irpin on the western side. unfortunately the continued russian progress from a new avenue from the east. if they're able to punch, you see the small insertion here, if

they are to punch and move south you get to the point they have a complete encirclement. people can leave kyiv in a limited fashion. that is getting tighter and tighter as artillery moves in and kyiv this morning more under siege. rachel: any change in the movement of the map and advances of the russian military, tells you anymore, gives you anymore insight what putin's endgame is? pete: endgame? only wants that capital city and zelenskyy. they have failed in their plans and bogged down. if you look at the details, vehicles, generals being shot, trying to get up too far with the advance, sheer mass and numbers, this is a more built-up area here, makes more moving in the rural areas they have a better advantage, something russia has been able to do,

endgame, it is clear he doesn't want until he gets to the capital city whether occupation is another ballgame. there are towns in the donbas region they're morning they're gone because the shell something so intense because there is not a single building. that is it, guys. 15 days in, you want to say things are changing dynamically. and they're not gee graphically necessarily, but as far as conditions on the ground, that is what putin wants to happen to bring the squeeze to the people. let's bring in benjamin hall, he knows this better than we do. he is in kyiv as the city is preparing for and all-out assault. benjamin you heard what we're covering here. they're making advances on the east. what are you covering on the ground? reporter: we're seeing the same thing on the ground. people for days have expecting

the full invasion with the rockets. it hasn't come in kyiv yet but overnight we hear shelling consistently on the outskirts and flashings in the night sky. no doubt they're pushing their way south, inching ever closer to the city. just how long the ukrainians can hold them back remains to be seen. they're fighting valiantly every day but the sheer mass of russian forces continues to push them back little by little. as with other cities, they failed with a ground invasion, they will start firing indiscrime man i shelling. pet zelenskyy said russian forces face a fight to the death. >> translator: they will kill all of us if they enter kyiv, let them enter, they will end up living alone on this land. they will not find friends among us. reporter: some of the smaller cities and towns russia does control largely down to the

south they're trying to take over the civil leadership there putting in some kind of government with scant success. in after melitopol they put their own mayor and trying to get into the break way states south of crimea. >> translator: russia is suffering from brain drain. it is losings talent and money. they intend to repeat the notorious experience of creating pseudo republics. they intend to create committees against the legitimate government on our land and people who take to the streets to protest every day. reporter: hundreds of people came out in defiance of russians and continue to do it in number of places. there is no doubt they will face severe resistance any attempt to impose their rule in country, russia already rounding up dissidents, rounding up anyone who speaks against them in

cities and towns like kherson. russia had success in towns. taken over large parts of the black sea coast, building a land bridge to crimea but they're struggling to win over any populations down there as we said time and time again, that idea that an occupation can be a success remains seriously doubtful. will, pete, rachel. will: benjamin as you sit in the city center in kyiv, the map pete showed us show how close the russians are encircling the capital, have you experienced that? we heard figures nine, 10 miles outside of the city. can you see blasts, can you hear battles taking place outside the city outskirts? reporter: constantly every hour and all through the night. to the northwest and east behind me. occasionally you hear large airstrikes. we gather they have been taking out a lot of airfields around here but it is constant, there is no doubt about it. we hear gun battles as well

sporadically. it is quiet at the moment. no doubt they're inching closer and we hear it all the time. pete: constant ominous feeling. to get into the city center. reporter: rid is. pete: benjamin hall, thank you very much. >> thank you, benjamin. pete: another fox news alert, another big story on the other part. will: unbelievable. as if ukraine were not enough, a dozen ballistic missiles raining down near a u.s. consulate in iraq. rachel: bryan llenas is live with us as officials say iran is toe blame. bryan. reporter: counterterrorism agency in kurd cities stan iraq, says 12 ballistic rockets were launched from neighboring iran intoer bill in the kurdistan region. they tell our correspondent jennifer griffin were fired toward the u.s. consulate in

erbil although there is no indication that the missiles were intended for u.s. facilities. multiple u.s. defense officials tell fox news none of the missiles hit the consulate. all u.s. personnel are accounted for. there were zero u.s. casualties in the city. the consulate in erbil is unmanned but there are people that live near the consulate and personnel. one of the rockets damaging the main headquarters of kurdistan 24-tv, causing the roof to cave in. no one was injured. this attack comes amid stalled u.s. negotiations with tehran to restart the iran nuclear deal. >> this has been a regular tactic that iran has employed against the u.s. presence in iraq. iran wants the remaining u.s. militariry presence in iraq to leave. iran may be trying to exact revenge. hard-liners in iran are seeking

leverage against us as we negotiate to me what looks like a pretty bad deal. reporter: the last time missiles were fired from iran into iraq was january of 2020. iran fired over a dozen missiles at the al-asad airbase which caused traumatic brain injuries with 100 u.s. troops. it was in response to a u.s. drone strike killing iranian general soleimani. guys? rachel: that is so interesting. i heard dan hoffman say this. this was a way to get leverage in the iran deal. how would that help them get leverage? seems to me, all right, not dealing with you crazy people. will: i've seen reports it was a retaliatory strike towards an israeli airstrike in syria some months ago on a iranian weapons depot that killed i believe some revolutionary guard. what i find fascinating about the random, as bryan was mentioning, last time january 2020, not random but

intermittent strikes that they haven't escalated more into attack, counter attack, attack, counterattack, manages to stay at the intermittent level as the world breaking out, sees its opportunity wherever it may be you wonder what the ambitions of iran are at this exact moment? pete: you're right. incremental attempts at revenge for killing quassem soleimani? language is more bellicose for that. firing at unmanned consulate. i don't know what that means. maybe we learn more what that means. maybe they picked a target there wouldn't be casualties? we're falling all over ourself to make sure there are not casualties. >> that our administration will feel bad dealing with these people. pete: feeling that we don't have

to retaliate that the iranians fired missiles from their country into our building? ultimately the iran deal, how does this affect that? the russians are sitting at the table as our representatives, as our representatives as we negotiate a "worser" ran deal. iran is shooting at us. you can't make this stuff up. rachel: no. pete: feel like a moment where they can exact damage. rachel: a lot of things popping up around the world. north korea as well. crazy. coming up former president trump declaring this about the war on ukraine. >> russia would not have dared to annex one inch of territory if i was in the white house. in fact -- [applause] they never did it when i was there. rachel: what trump says biden is getting wrong on the world stage. pete: plus the computer shop owner who alerted the fbi about

the hunter biden laptop is on the verge of bankruptcy. the backlash from the "laptop from hell" coming up. nothing will stop me from vacation. no canceling.

rachel: we are bag with some headlines. in new york the museum of modern art is evacuated after two

employees are stabbed by a disgruntled man. the alleged attacker a 60-year-old man recently had his membership revoked into the museum. he was not allowed into a film and jumped over-the-counter to attack the employees. they recognize him from previous incidents. police say they arrested a drug dealer that they believe is behind the mass fentanyl overdose of five west point arrests. broward county sheriffs office busting axle cassius for selling $1000 worth of cocaine to an undercover detective. his phone was the one cadets communicated with when they unknowingly purchased cocaine. he faces one count of drug trafficking. three of the cadets are still in the hospital. the computer shop owner who alerted the fbi to hunter biden's abandoned laptop back in 2020 is speaking out. john pal ice acteling the

"new york post" he is on the verge of bankruptcy after the harrassment forced him to close the computer shop to flee delaware. he claims big tech, irs, other government agencies ran and intimidation campaign against him. sometimes when you expose the truth guys you become a target. rachel: hunter biden still rich. now going bankrupt. pete: i think the guy's computer shop was in baltimore, i believe? rachel: was blind, right? pete: move to nebraska say hunter biden's i.t. guy. everyone could go there. >> yes. >> great idea. >> you could be his headhunter. will: i will run the ads. they write themselves. rachel: thank you, carley. will: president trump held a rally in south carolina, he talked about, his personality, the role his personality plays on the world stage.

everybody said during the four years of the trump administration his personality would get us into world war iii. he said last night, my personality kept us out of world war iii. watch. >> make no mistake however, russia would not have dared to annex one inch of territory if i was in the white house. under my leadership, america was feared by our enemies and we were respected by all. the fake news, they are fake, fake news said said my personality would get us into a war. i'm telling you that guy is going to get us into a war but actually my personality is what kept us out of war. [cheering] i was the only president in nearly four decades who did not get into america into any new conflicts. instead of i brought our troops and our wonderful children back home. i brought them back home where they belong.

[cheering] rachel: he did. he brought them home. but by the way not before crushing isis which we seem to forget how dangerous things were when he took office. i mean i remember being terrified by all of the stories that were coming out of you know, sex slaves taken by isis and beheadings and people being thrown off of buildings. we were told that would be the new normal. he completely got rid of that and he started bringing our people home. he never started a war. he is absolutely right. one of the things i liked about him. he talked about that even in the campaign, pete. i don't want war with other people. i want to work on building america. as he wrapped things up and got america going again. pete: the proof is the track record of those years. the evidence is not what you're saying the no what you will do, you talked about the fight against isis, which you're right is incredibly underreported and forgot about. rachel: totally. pete: guys involved in the operation it was flip after switch from administration to administration.

they overhauled the rules of engagement, unleashed them to unleash hell on isis, sure enough, we're not fighting a politically-correct war anymore. we're destroying isis and they're gone. the longer you dilly, the more you dither, the longer you're there the less successful your mission ultimately is, what he changed. by the way you can watch that entire speech on position nation. everyone of his rallies broadcast live on fox nation. will: i wonder how they can argue, argue with the track record, black and white. four years -- pete: tweets. will: mean tweets? i know the answer to my rhetorical question. this is how they try to rationalize the track record, oh, well when president trump was in office russia didn't need to attack ukraine. this is the backwards analysis they have to work through to get through the black and white facts of the track record. pete: would have given them ukraine. wouldn't need to fight a war. i heard someone say that.

rachel: when he was running for office he kept saying. there were a lot of things about reagan he incorporated, including make america great again. ronald reagan said that too. i think he was all aabout making america strong and pushing off our enemies or making them think twice about anything that they were going to do based on that economic strength. that is part of the puzzle. pete: making them think twice, you're exactly right. there was a story recently told one of the interviews president trump gave he said to vladmir putin whether it is true, apocryphal, he said if you hurt a hair on one american's head, i will bomb moscow. putin goes, no you're not. he said, yes i am. even if vladmir putin believes that 10% or 20%, consider the fact that is the threat of violence that maintains peace. you know conversations like that are not had at all. rachel: right now that wasket ball player that is being held in russia, there are now democrats saying hey the

administration is not doing enough to get her out. hurting one hair on an american's head, it was under donald trump that more u.s. hostages were released than any other president, 50 of them. again, that is the strength he exuded and people responded to that on the world stage. will: want to get to this morning because this was a fascinating piece of sound that came out yesterday from the vice president of the united states kamala harris. at first it's funny, and then it's scary. watch. >> so i will say what i know we all say and i will say over and over again, the united states stands firmly with the ukrainian people in defense of the nato alliance. will: so if you're standard fare about the value of unity, the one talking point she managed to master, the value of unity. pay attention to what she said at the end of that sentence. it is pretty important. she says the united states will

stand firmly with the ukrainian people in defense of the nato alliance. i'm sure you know because you've been watching non-stop coverage of the russia ukrainian war but you crain is not in nato. they are not part of a nato alliance and the vice president of the united states seems to have missed that fact. and it's funny for a second. then you remember this person is a heartbeat away from the presidency of the united states. rachel: indeed the question of whether ukraine should or shouldn't be in nato is the reason we're in this entire situation to begin with. so it is not some small little, i mean we all make a little mistake here and there, but that's pretty decisive of a mistake. pete: will, as you pointed out informed me before we started the show the white house transcript was actually edited so it says, stands firm with the ukrainian people and in defense

of the nato alliance. they were in clean up mode when she said it. they tell us this is shooting war, tell us too many and time again as if information we don't know and we send kamala harris to reassure the world, reassure poland, we stand behind them, not as part of nato alliance but ukraine is fighting off the whole entire russian army. that is supposed to inspire confidence? rachel: you said during the break, if i can say this, it is frightening she is a heartbeat away. if i was joe biden or kamala harris, if i was zelenskyy i wish trump was in charge or some other president was in charge and here is the critical moment i have kamala harris, joe biden, lloyd austin, general milley? will: how is it any different? i'm terrified to find out the answer to that question, rachel.

i will put this to you guys this way and to anyone watching at home, your friend, mutual friend buck sexton doing a show with mark lamont hill on the left. buck put an interesting question to mark lamont hill, if you could would you replace joe biden with kamala harris. rachel: great question. will: there is general acknowledgement the first year of the biden presidency hasn't gone that well but in that moment of reflection from the left there had to be an honest answer of no, i would not replace joe biden with kamala harris. because at this point everyone understands the utter incompetency involved in that decision. you would be choosing this type of unqualified, unprepared response as president of the united states. rachel: i'm just really not very encouraged by joe biden at all and i'm not really sure he is all there and i'm not afraid to say that and i don't know who is really running the show and i think given the state of the world right now american people

deserve an answer to that. who is, is it ben rhodes? is it valerie jarrett? is it susan rice? i don't know. pete: it is the not all there because you're getting older, you're not all there, you lost your fastball, versus just you're never going to be there. rachel: that is a good analysis, pete. that is good analysis. will: coming up as gas prices surge to record highs, "kurt the cyberguy" has tips you need to save when you fill up. a winter storm slamming the east coast with some cities buried under snow. adam klotz tracking the latest coming up next. i'm covered for everything. which reminds me, thank you for driving me to the drugstore. earn big time with chase freedom unlimited with no annual fee. how do you cashback? chase. make more of what's yours. >> tech: need to get your windshield fixed? safelite makes it easy. >> tech vo: you can schedule in just a few clicks. and we'll come to you with a replacement you can trust.

people with moderate to severe psoriasis, or psoriatic arthritis, are rethinking the choices they make like the splash they create the way they exaggerate the surprises they initiate. otezla. it's a choice you can make. otezla is not an injection or a cream it's a pill that treats differently. for psoriasis, 75% clearer skin is achievable, with reduced redness, thickness,

and scaliness of plaques. for psoriatic arthritis, otezla is proven to reduce joint swelling, tenderness, and pain. and the otezla prescribing information has no requirement for routine lab monitoring. don't use if you're allergic to otezla. it may cause severe diarrhea, nausea, or vomiting. otezla is associated with an increased risk of depression. tell your doctor if you have a history of depression or suicidal thoughts or if these feelings develop. some people taking otezla reported weight loss. your doctor should monitor your weight and may stop treatment. upper respiratory tract infection and headache may occur. tell your doctor about your medicines and if you're pregnant or planning to be. otezla. show more of you. rachel: we're back with a fox weather alert. a winter storm slamming the east coast leaving some parts of new england buried under snow. binghamton, new york, setting a new record for a daily snowfall with over 10-inches of snow yesterday. the storm causing a massive pile

up in pennsylvania. over 73 cars were involved. wow. police say drivers face near whiteout conditions. at least 10 people were injured. but none of their injuries were considered life-threatening. let's check in with meteorologist adam klotz with the fox weather forecast. adam: rachel, that winter storm hitting most of the northeast lingering overnight. cold air is settled in. i'm feeling it on fox air. a lot of folks will feel it this morning. we'll dive in with some snowfall totals. widespread, gets up close to 10 inches up to a foot of total snowfall particularly in non new england. the tail end of the system lifts off to the north and east. snow off to the north around midwest. look at temperatures behind this. currently 24 degrees in new york. that is a deep push of cold air into the southern united states. freeze warnings, hard freeze warnings across the southeast. what does that mean for

will: we're back with a fox news alert. the assault on ukraine enters its 18th day and nine people have been killed after russian airstrikes pound a military facility outside of lviv overnight. as the kyiv prepares for an all-out assault. also breaking overnight, ballistic rockets are launched from iran raining down on the u.s. consulate in iraq. [explosions] no casualties thankfully have been reported in that attack and no one has claimed

responsibility. let's bring in ambassador danny danon, israel's 17th permanent representative to the united states. thank you very much, mr. ambassador for being with us this morning. let's look at the missile attacks in iraq coming from iran. what do you make of this, what do you suspect is iran's motivation? >> iranians took responsibility publicly for the attack. the iran revolutionary guard took responsibility for the attack against a u.s. consulate and will only show the iranians while they're negotiating with the u.s. and other democracies in vienna are attacking u.s. targets. i think it should be a sign for the at administration in washington to cease the negotiation. i don't understand why they're running to sign such a bad deal with the iranians while they're attacking u.s. targets and israeli targets. will: what do you think the iranians hope to accomplish by this missile strike? i mean they want to reignite the

talks over the nuclear talks over iran? was it in fact, i read various reports, by the way, mr. ambassador, it was in response to an israeli attack in syria on a weapons depot? what are they hoping to accomplish by this act of aggression? >> we cannot tell exactly what their motives but we know they're very happy with the draft of that agreement they achieved in vienna. today the russians are playing last minute games with the deal. i think they're trying to push the u.s. and the european countries to sign that deal and i want to remind you and the audience the agreement, 2014 agreement is bad, but the new one is even worse. in three years they will have capability to build a nuclear bomb, to enrich ukraine yum, no inspections, ballistic missile tests. they're eager to sign the bill to lift sanctions, the same revolutionary guard that

attacked the u.s. hours guard would be lifted from sanctions if the u.s. signs that agreement. can you imagine you're actually lifting sanctions on someone who is targeting you? i cannot understand what is the reasoning behind the wish of the new administration to run to this deal. will: yeah i think the lesson for the united states and the entire world at this moment in history is do not give away leverage of nuclear power to someone who acts in an aggressive fashion towards you, be it ukraine or against israel or to the u.s. embassy in iraq. so you're speaking, let's speak hypothetically for a moment. you're speaking directly to the biden administration, mr. ambassador, what do you tell them regarding these negotiations with iran? >> hold your horses. take your time. maybe you want to move on to deal with other issues. we know what is happening in ukraine. we're all worried about it but the last thing you want to do is create a monster in the middle east that will attack not only

u.s. targets but will attack your closest ally, israel, attack your allies in the gulf. we're worried about it. will have billions of dollars to support share their proxieses. what you're seeing today only the beginning. there will be attacks on tel aviv, dubai, all attacks on by the iranian proxies. will: fox ed.com, a headline reads unite against nuclear iran. biden's new deal more dangerous than the original. can you explain while we're on this topic, one last question, can you explain why russia still has a role in negotiating some iranian nuclear deal? >> that is part of the p-5 plus one. they're playing games. they're making excuses. i think when they really want to get to get the influence in terms of oil and gas. they don't want the iranians to start negotiating while they're under sanctions.

so maybe i think we should take advantage of the game with russia and pound the negotiations and hopefully look at this understand we should not make that mistake now. will: ambassador danny danone. thank you very much for getting up this morning, shining a light on this, absolutely unacceptable movement toward new nuclear power anywhere in the world, much less than the middle east. thank you for your time this morning. >> thank you. will: vice president kamala harris has a new mission for democrats to prevent a red wave in the midterms. >> our task is to show people that in many ways they got what they ordered, right? it's slider sunday! sliiiiiiiiii-der sunday! these chicken parm sliders on king's hawaiian rolls are fire! slider sunday! i want that. everything's better between king's hawaiian bread. mmm! your shipping manager left to “find themself.” leaving you lost.

[~explosions] will: fox news alert. overnight the u.s. says a dozen ballistic rockets are launched from iran, raining down near the u.s. consulate in iraq. no casualties have been reported in that attack and no one has yet claimed responsibility. pete: also breaking overnight russian strikes continue as their invasion of ukraine is now in its 18th day. nine people killed after missiles pound a military facility outside of lviv in the western part of the country. the strikes come as the capital city of kyiv prepares for an

all-out assault. rachel: benjamin hall is live in kyiv. he joins us now. good morning, benjamin. reporter: rachel, will, pete, good morning. the death toll from the western strike in lviv has just risen. they say 35 people were killed in that strike what was a training facility a facility housed u.s. troops until just a few weeks ago. russian forces launched missile strikes on that base early this morning. it is 13 miles from the polish border. now the head of the lviv administration confirming 35 people died, in what is the western most attack of this war. the targeted a training facility which housed u.s. troops until just a few weeks ago. russia said arms shouldn't and other aid brought into ukraine could be targeted t was thought this was an attempt to cut off the supply of weapons. around kyiv the russians keep inching forward, just nine miles from the city center. they are taking over in the outskirts. the concern as with other cities where they failed with a ground

invasion they will soon start indiscrimminantly shelling instead. president zelenskyy has warned them against it. >> translator: if they decide to carpet bomb and erase the history of this region and destroy all of us, then they will enter kyiv. if that is the goal, let them come in but they will have to live on this land by themselves. reporter: in some of the smaller cities and towns russia does control largely in the south which don't have the defenses to keep russian troops out, we've seen russia trying to put in place its own civil leadership and choosing mayors and counselors from russian-backed opposition groups to set up breakaway states. in a stark warning to any towns that resist them. the town has been destroyed by the russian government. the town and infrastructure effectively no longer exists, it is flattened. the same is true of other smaller residential towns and villages. the message is clear submit to

russian influence and russian rule or you will be obliterated. we've seen that in a number of towns across the country side. nothing left of them, absolutely raised to the ground. no one alive in there. everyone has fled. pete: one quick follow-up question, as it pertains to the capital are there religious sites, historic sites, significant to russia that may prevent vladmir putin from leveling the city in the ways he has others? i've heard reports of that. i just want to get your sense? reporter: it's a very good point because you look back in history, kyiv was part of the larger russian empire hundreds of years ago and there are some people who said the image of some of these great sites being destroyed would not play well domestically in russia. that being said, kharkiv, ukraine's second largest city is historically significant to russia and that has been flattened. some of the great sites of this capital, you can see some behind me, would be shocking image for

russians to see some of those felled and shelled but you can't put anything past putin at this point. rachel: benjamin, can i ask you this, how are you keeping yourself safe? obviously as things get closer around closer as they're coming in what happens to journalists like you? reporter: we keep an eye every day on the russian movements. we keep an eye on the corridor so the south. air raid sirens go here, we take precautions. that is all we do and can do. the fight something inching closer. we're stocked up with food and water. we have generators and we're watching. we're on a network here. other networks and media are in communication with one another with our security team. we feel we have a pretty good grasp of the situation. the only thing you can't predict is the shelling and indiscriminate nature f that starts to pick up we'll

reconsider where we are. we have risk assessments. we feel pretty safe and confident being here. pete: we appreciate you. thank you so much for your reporting. rachel: thank you, benjamin. pete: things happening a lot overnight. we have will cain at the maps. the fight has moved to the west where it was not before. will: let's take that fascinating report we heard from benjamin hall and give you context. as pete said in earlier hours the western front of this war largely been up to this point is west of kyiv. the notable events overnight show russians bombing far to the west. that is so far west, this bombing here at a military training facility, it was only 12 to 13 miles from the polish border. i chose to use red here to highlight that. that is a literal red line for nato, crossing into a nato country here in poland, would target, would initiate you suspect a much larger war. we're seeing 12 miles now of buffer here when it comes to the

larger war. let's move in take a closer look what is happening near the capital. you heard benjamin talking with rachel and pete about the capital kyiv. as it always been a war with two front. pete laid out it for us on both sides of kyiv. what we should note here how close russian forces are getting to encircling kyiv. in our earlier hour we talked to benjamin hall, he said it was nine miles now, the russian convoy and encircling kyiv. nine miles outside of the city center. you can hear it every day, every night, shootings, bombs, battles taking place outside of kyiv. of course really the devastation being described in the south. cities getting absolutely leveled and in their mace the beginnings of a puppet government. we saw in melitopol where the mayor was kidnapped. a referendum put in a russian pup pit as the city's mayor. some of the most damage, most

devastation in city like mariupol where you're seeing absolute devastation as just described. what does the devastation mean by the way, what is the fallout? a massive refugee crisis. you can see refugees flooding into surrounding countries in ukraine. poland taking most of the refugees in. pole slammed saying we're just about at capacity. we don't know we can take anymore. find this number, give you a little bit of context, there are roughly 42 million people that live in ukraine. so you're looking at 5% of the population has left ukraine and gone to poland, romania, slovakia, and other countries around ukraine. there is a little bit to help you visualize the devastation that is taking place in ukraine. pete: riley interesting, will, because that 2.5 number is huge as number of refugees but when you consider it as a percentage, shows you how much larger the

refugee crisis could get. rachel: right. how many decided to stay. i'm actually surprised, it was really helpful to see that those numbers and put it into a better context, but, yeah, i'm surprised how many decided to stay but as you mentioned, pete, it could get worse. people could say we're going to leave. pete: and the window as you showed around kyiv, the window to evacuate is getting shorter and shorter it appears. rachel: it is getting more dangerous. pete: and getting more dangerous at the same time as shelling moves to the western route where refugees traditionally been going. we don't like to be the bearers of that type of news but that -- rachel: can i ask one thing? we've all for the last, you know, several weeks we've been talking about, is there a possibility there could be a deal? we were talking about that as we were seeing the russian troops amassing on the border before the actual incursion happened. at this point if you're

zelenskyy, and you're seeing this, you know, what looks like it is going to be, i mean perhaps the ukrainians can pull this off but doesn't look like that to me, is this a moment where you go, i want to save part of the country? does this create a situation where he, yesterday he sounded like he wanted, he sounded defiant but if you looked deeper into the interview, the statement he made, he also said he was willing to make a peace settlement. that was not reported as heavily as other parts of the speech. i just wonder if there is still some hope here or if ukraine will lose everything if they keep going to the bitter end. will: one hand on the inspirational fight on the other hand can also be a atrocious war of attrition. in other words, it is really a battle of whose will breaks first, vladmir putin or the people of ukraine and i think on that note we get a little insight when we hear the people

like the mayor of kyiv, he is vitale klitschko. and his brother, vladimir klitschko, they were on "fox & friends." like zelenskyy, they have become symbols of the ukrainian people. watch. >> this is to fight the evil against the good and we're talking about cities like kharkiv, kherson, ivankiv, many other cities in the districts where civilians are leaving, up to 100 children were killed. more than 100 children were injured. this is genocide of the ukrainian population. it has nothing to do with just the military bases. this is not something that is, russian administration and the president, russian president putin is trying to make out of sitting that he is acting against the military.

no. the military force, russian military forces destroying not just the infrastructure of you a crain but destroying 307lation. >> go away from our country. go away from ukraine. this is our home. here are our children. we're fighting for freedom. >> message to nato, we have to close our skies. very important. we need defensive weapons because -- once the strongest army in the world, russian army. but our military forces show greater performance and destroyed all lands of russians. that is why we need the help. pete: to your question, rachel, if i'm zelenskyy, this is just from zelenskyy's perspective or the mayor of kyiv, i'm pounding the table every single day with atrocities, i need american involvement now. if vladmir putin uses a tactical

nuclear weapon or releases chemical, biological weapons, if i'm zelenskyy, i'm pounding the table, because they know ultimately without nato or u.s. backup, they can only hold out so long against the russians. rachel: they're holding out bravely. pete: they're holding on incredibly bravely across the country, losing entire towns and possibly entire jeanne race of men standing up to the military. russia is reverting to air power. ukrainians are digging trenches, setting tank traps. that will be protracted but it is hard to see any sort of peace negotiation, ukrainians may end up saying okay, we'll give you land in exchange for protecting zelenskyy, but would that be enough for vladmir putin's appetite at this point? how far does he really want to go, does he wants to stand in the center of kyiv and say i've taken it? sometimes it it is ego.

it. rachel: it is very complicated. i would hate to be in zelenskyy's shoes. there is so much at stake. we're hearing moore about our other big story, iraqi military that 12 militaries last night firing at quote, secret military bases. pete: israeli media reporting that it was likely supposed to be a retaliation attack after two iranian soldiers were killed in an attack in syria but israeli government denies the presence of israeli bases in the area. will: the missiles were fired toward a u.s. consulate. but thankfully the consulate was not hit and all personnel are safe and accounted for. a moment of tense escalation, potentially involving what would be, what seeks to be another nuke clear power who sees i think another opportunity on the world stage. it seems many, many, governments

and countries with ill intentions see now it is their time. pete: to make a move. bryan llenas reported on it earlier in the hour. followed up. the report was the consulate was unmanned. his understanding it just happened not to be timed at the time of the attack. it is new, not currently occupied. not surprisingly iranians are using an at the semitic reasons for taking action. firing missiles from your own soil aimed at u.s. consulate, you're trying to send a signal to somebody. they're sitting at the table as you pointed out, rachel, with the iran deal with the russians. do they think it gives them more leverage? who knows. rachel: the administration is again falling over itself to remind no americans were killed. the consulate was not hit. we're on the couch asking the question how crazy it is. you had a great interview with

ambassador danny danone earlier today where he is asking the same he request. take a look. >> iranians, why are they negotiating with the u.s. with other democracies in vienna attacking u.s. targets. i think it should be a sign for the administration in washington to cease the negotiation. i don't know why they're running to sign such a bad deal with the iranians. while they're attacking u.s. targets an israeli targets and i want to remind you and the audience, it was the old agreement, 2014 agreement was bad. the new one is even worse. in three years they will have capabilities to build a nuclear bomb, to enrich uranium, no inspections. ballistic missile tests. that is why they're eager to sign the bill. pete: our viewers don't need to be reminded this is existential for the state of israel. it was in 2014, it is today, we're largely distracted some ways desperate by other things around the globe.

if you're the state of israel right now, it is a mortifying reality. rachel: yeah. will: well the price of gas continues to smash records across the nation. rachel: and americans are looking for relief, calling for biden to support u.s. energy independence. pete: todd piro joins us live from connecticut with more. todd? reporter: will, rachel, pete, hey, i got it right today. we were joking around about that yesterday. this is no laughing matter. take a look at that. 4.59 if you want to pay with a credit card for a gallon of gas in connecticut. americans are feeling pain at the pump, prices soaring to record high never seen in the u.s. average gallon $4.32 yesterday. the cost of some hitting nearly seven bucks. people are forced to make tough choices. deciding whether to pay for gas is worth the squeeze. that pain being shared by rideshares as uber announces it will add a fuel surcharge for

almost all rides and uber eats orders. that surcharge in effects for next 60 days. former president trump ripping president biden for surging energy costs offering this solution at a rally in florence, south carolina last night. >> we would have to end biden's ridiculous war on american energy. we were energy independent. it is very simple, we have to get our great energy workers drilling pumping producing, mining and refining like never before. reporter: but president biden as you heard from the president, former president trump and other people facing increasing pressure to do something. undo what he did on day one of his presidency when it comes to energy costs but at this point, guys, no movement on restarting american production anytime soon. back to you. will: yesterday when you called us pill. todd was in westchester. today he is in connecticut.

tomorrow he is a at the gas station across from his home. reporter: well-played. i have to give our producers some props here. they managed to get me as close to my home as possible. to your point, will, tomorrow i will be in my own bathroom reporting on the gas prices live from my toilet. will: that would be gross but -- tv. thank you, todd. rachel: thanks, todd. pete: gas prices. will: all right, so the biden administration, i believe, officially harris-biden administration i was told that during the campaign season, harris-biden administration, telling us you got exactly what you ordered. watch. >> i know and i believe we know when we show what we have accomplished, just in a year, and when we show it it is because the american people voted, i believe we will meet the moment again but that is our

task. our task is to show people that in many ways they got what they ordered. right? they said this is what they wanted. [applause] they stood in line. they took time from work. it was difficult. and a lot of what they demanded they got. pete: rip-roaring applause. rachel: i'm sorry i agree with her. i totally agree with kamala harris. fox news alert. [laughter]. she's right. we knew exactly what joe biden, that he was wrong on everything with foreign policy, we've known that. we knew that he never came out of his basement the entire campaign. that he really wasn't up for the task. that he was probably not doing well mentally, even physically. we have knew that she was not liked by the, by her own party and that she was incompetent. we got what we deserved.

will: that is literally an rnc ad. you can take that right there, and stitch in news clips of high inflation, war in ukraine -- pete: afghanistan. will: supply chain broken, war in afghanistan. pete: southern border. will: take a year's worth of news, you got exactly what you ordered. rachel: exactly right. pete: i guess it is indignant to say we, looking at all the available evidence you're exactly right, it is a script that will read in 30 seconds. they show exactly what we didn't order. do they really think people ordered these crises and this inflation? they ordered policies in their mind that led to them. i don't know. rachel: they been also add obama at the end of the ad, elections have consequences. this is what you ordered america, you know, vote better next time, democrats. pete: we are monitoring new reporting that dozens are dead after russian strike on a

good morning, everyone. rachel: tell us about the situation. we know poland is taking more refugees, significantly more than any other country but it seems like you're starting to run out of space and resources. >> well, as you mentioned it is 1.6 million fleeing towards poland, running away from the war and it is only been 14 days. we as you mentioned before need -- [inaudible]. response to those type of crisis are the ngos and volunteers. but how long the volunteers or ngo can help this amount of people to provide them with proper treatment, provide them with food, with shelter, with everything all the basic need that there are. as they said when we were speaking yesterday, we're running out of -- and running out of time. rachel: yeah. so your organization focuses

primary on young people. what are the needs of young people that are different than say the rest of the population of refugees? >> well, we are not focusing solely on young people. we're trying to help everyone that is crossing the border which means we try to provide them transportation from the border to the city of krakow and maybe other cities in poland. we have a small set places available for permanent or temporary status where we can allocate those people and we're trying to put forward other programs like trying to fight the -- [inaudible]. schools for the children that are crossing the border of poland. rachel: that is so nice. just having some sense of normally, going to school would be so good for those children. it is becoming increasingly more dangerous to get out of ukraine and into poland. i know you are expecting to see more refugees but do you really,

as you know, it gets more dangerous, do you think the flow just might be less because it is just, things are getting leveled and there is attacks on people as they're trying to get out? >> i can't tell. at the moment what we're focusing we're trying to organize a convoy of several cars every day to the border when we can try to bring people from the border directly to krakow or have them to other destinations. this is what we're currently focusing on. we don't count the numbers. we don't know what to expect. we are just trying to do whatever we can in order to help those people. when they cross our border, we feel like we're responsible for them because we took them in. rachel: poland is doing an amazing job. your organization, the junior chamber, is as well. we really appreciate you joining us this morning, giving us an update. we're praying for you and of course all of the refugees.

viewers have asked, i want to say this we talked in the past, so sorry for what happened with your son, how does this happen? why does this happen? why do drug dealers lace their drugs with something that can kill their consumer? >> well, that is an excellent question. first of all thank you so much for having me on the show. the reason why they're putting fentanyl into recreational drugs like cocaine is because they want the customers to return. it is, what they want them to do, is they want them to come back time and time again but unfortunately as we all know is that fentanyl is a synthetic opioid and it is poison. it is completely poison. i'm sure that these cadets, when they bought this cocaine, they had absolutely no idea, had no idea that there was fentanyl in their cocaine. now they have to deal with the consequences for the rest of their life. that is not only happening in florida, this is happening in

every single bedroom community, every suburb, every city, in the united states of america. it is happening with the illicit opioids counterfeits made by the mexican cartels, used with chinese chemicals where children are going on to social media apps like snapchat, buying these drugs, thinking they're buying a farm suitally tray marked pill. in all reality is a counterfeit pill made with fentanyl and binder and killing them. there are advocates all across the nation like myself have been raising this warning to everybody that please, please, if you have to stop using drugs all together, because it is in everything now. will: as you describe it, it is a cheaper alternative. these dealers are trying to balancer the addictiveness against the deadliness to keep their supposedly alive consumers coming back. your group put out a documentary

called dead on arrival. look at fentanyl versus cocaine. >> how much cocaine would somebody have to inguess to kill them? this much fentanyl would kill you and i if we submit it. it is odorless, it is tasteless. you don't know it is there. when you find out it is there it's too late you won't even know it. you'll be dead. will: reports are two of the cadets in the hospital were giving mouth to mouth to two others apparently been poisoned. that is how deadly it is. i know by the way, i know your personal story. it wasn't just a hypothetical you laid out for us. your son on snapchat thought he was buying a pharmaceutical that ended up being laced and poisoned with fentanyl. thank you for sharing your story. not easy. it is important. most terrifying thing for me as a parent. used to be drunk driving. still is. i'm terrified. don't take a pill, take no drugs

because you're being poisoned. jaime, thanks very much. >> that's correct. thank for having me on your show. stop the void.org, stop the void.org, you will find the documentary there. i suggest every single parent in the nation sit down with their children watch this 21 minute documentary. because it could be life-saving. thank you so much. will: you bet. efforts to help the people of ukraine coming from around the world as russian forces close in on the capital city. marine veteran, medal of honoree salient dakota meyer is on the ground and he joins us live next. his future became my focus. lavender baths always calmed him. so we turned bath time into a business. ♪ and building it with my son has been my dream job. ♪ at northwestern mutual, our version of financial

i don't think anybody on the team is surprised by this. it definitely makes it more come complicated. i tell you what is happening, coming across the border is a bottleneck. everyone coming across the poland border is a great target for the russians. i'm definitely not surprised by this. will: dakota, i've seen reports that poland says we're about tapped when it comes to refugees. are you seeing that? capacities, supplies, are they getting overwhelmed in poland? >> what i am seeing, i'm seeing a lot, a majority of ngos are here in poland. everyone here, all i'm seeing people willing to help, trying to find a way to fit into this and be active to help the ukrainian people. you're seeing it all across the bored as far as you know, people who are trying to give food, supplies over to help these people survive through this whole thing. rachel: given the attack near

the border, do you think there are other better places for refugees to go than poland? i know a majority want to go to poland but should they be thinking about other routes? >> well i mean i think a majority of people want to come through over in poland because they want to get inside of the eu, right? they want to get medicare or health care benefits, all of that, right? i think that is the reason they're coming up through here. rachel: yes. >> romania is definitely another place they could be going to. a lot of these people don't even have you have in fuel -- enough fuel to get over in the poland. communications are about to go down. all these things will complicate this entire, this entire movement. so i mean i think they're just trying to get to wherever they can. pete: dakota, we have only a limited amount of time left, on the military side, we're on day

will: fox news alert, 35 people are dead after a military strike in western ukraine. 134 others are hurt in what is, we think, the deadliest strike so far of the war. pete: it comes as kyiv prepares for an all-out assault. will: we're also learning more about a dozen iranian ballistic missiles raining down near the u.s. consulate in iraq. [background sounds]

rachel: no casualties have been reported in that attack. iran says it was targeting secret israeli military bases. we begin this hour with benjamin hall live in kyiv. benjamin, good morning. >> reporter: good morning, rachel, will and pete. yes, a significant strike near lviv, certainly the most western strike we have seen so far, a mere 12 miles from the nato border of poland. a facility where u.s. troops were based just a few weeks ago, and the russian forces launched a major missile strike at about 6:00 this morning. as you say, 35 people killed in that sting single strike, and that is considered to be, so far, the worst of this war. the target was a training facility led by nato troops just until recently, and yesterday russia said any arms shipments being brought into the country could be targeted. it is thought that's what they were trying to do, an attempt to

cut off the supply of weapons that keeps i flowing into this country. around kyiv, the capital, the russians keep inching forward slowly but surely. they're now just around 9 miles from the city center. president zelenskyy who says 1300 ukrainian soldiers have so far been killed warned the russians against bombing the city indiscriminately. >> translator: if they decide to carpet bomb and simply erase the history of this region and destroy all of us, then today will enter kyiv. if that's the goal, let them come in, but they will have to live on this land by themselves. >> reporter: in some of the smaller cities and towns around this country that that a russia does control, it's trying to put in place its own civil leadership. it's choosing mayors and counselors, and in a stark warning to think towns and cities who resist them, in the southeast one town has been totally destroyed by russian

bombardment according to its governor, and the same is true of smaller residential towns and cities. president zelenskyy here spoke with the polish leader just recently, reaffirmed that commitment how closely they're working together, and another thing from the russians we're hearing is the sanctions being placed on it could well result in the international space station being affected, and it could, in their words, fall. pete: we've heard reports, and you mentioned this as well, that vladimir putin is threatening to bomb or attack the supply lines that are coming in. and it wasn't just about migs, it was about weapons flowing in. an attack like this, could that be an a precursor to attacking supplies coming in from western countries to support ukraine? >> reporter: it could be. president putin has said he sees this as an act of war itself, and it is the lifeline. these javelins and stingers that come this, the body armor is a lifeline for the troops here.

and we've seen time and time again how successful they've been holding the russians back so, yes, it is one with of the key goals of the russians at the moment is to top is -- stop the endless supply coming in from the west. whether or not the errant missile strike is a risk, it is, and that's why this attack is so significant. it's cutting off supply lines, but it's also getting very, very close to poland and nato countries. will: hey, benjamin, we've talked throughout the morning about the encirclement of kyiv, the coming siege of kyiv, and we talk to you that the russians are roughly 9, 10 miles outside the city. i'd love to know if you've had some firsthand experience or talked to, obviously, those who have, what that battle loosic -- looks like on the outskirts of the city s. this javelins taking shots at the attempt to set up artillery that would pummel the city? is it small arms fire? what's the actual battle look

like on the outskirts of kyiv? >> reporter: it's a bit of all of those, to be honest, will. initially you had those large convoys, and they were being picked off by these javelin missiles. we saw russia adapt and change its tactics, try and split up some of those convoy toss avoid that because of the success. as they move into some of these smaller towns like irk r -- irpin, it's started to be smaller hand to hand fighting. they were repel ask and so trooped came in. so there's also been gun battles going on. in the end, the russians flatten the towns with their artillery s so that seems to be what's happened across this country. they tried to move in with tanks, that doesn't work, they try infantry, that doesn't work, then they flatten the towns and they can move in more easily. they simply are not able to get around these javelin ares which

have been so effective. will: we heard so much during the afghanistan-soviet role about the -- war about stingers. would it be an overstatement to say that the javelin has been a massive difference maker in this russia-ukrainian war. >> reporter: absolutely. the russians have been decimated by these. we saw 17,000 javelins coming in in the last couple weeks a i -- alone. miles and miles long, we've seen countless videos from across the country of ukrainians picking them off heft and right. yes, these javelins are playing a critical role and the stingers as well. over a hundred helicopters and planes have been brought down by the ukrainians using stingers, so it's not no doubt that it's turning the tide of the war. rachel: do you have a sense that

the ukrainians as outmanned and outgunned as they are, that they can withstand what we see as this, you know, final seen on the city is. >> -- siege on the city? >> reporter: well, they can't withstand the artillery, the rockets and the airstrikes. they can fight on the ground, there's no doubt about it. but the sheer scale and force of the russian army means it is very difficult what a lot of people tell me is that the russians don't have the ability to conquer and occupy the territory no matter how many troops they've got, but nor do the ukrainians have the ability to repel the russians. so you end up herbally with a -- potentially with a stalemate where neither side can take that decisive blow on the other, and that's why you see civilian death tolls rising and attacks becoming more indiscriminatement will: benjamin hall, thank you. rachel: always great reports, benjamin if, thank you so much. pete: i had a navy seal call me

yesterday and say why haven't we seen more footage of the actual skirmishes out front? back in afghanistan and iraq, you're watching fire fights. a couple of factors. one, on the russian side you're not seeing the troops filming because most of them don't even have phones because they're not allowed to communicate back home. on the ukrainian side, this is not like iraq or afghanistan on the media side where if you're a member of the media, you're embedded with the unit, you can effectively call 9 11 and the u.s. military is around to evacuate you. a reporter going out on the front line to attempt to capture that a kind of footage is subject to -- there's no 911 to call and is subject to the russian military and the indiscriminate nature of what they do, and they might be in with ad hoc ukrainian units to begin with. so you don't have as many reporters on the front line, and we all underestimate, you're not pulling out your phone.

is it small unit on small unit, is it squads or dismounted infantry trying to move close enough to get to the russian vehicles so they can use a javelin missile which is effective up to 2 miles away? if it also has thermal sights which means you can see in the dark, see objects further away. it's a fire and forget. you site, you can hide and it goes up and then hits the top of the tank. so i am also fascinated by the tactics being employed. i've seen images of world war i, world war ii-style trenches, yards and yards of straight up human trenches and tanks trying to maneuver them into place where they can be hit with javelins. a weapons system like that, with enough of them properly trained, can actually be decisive against a mechanized infantry -- rachel: fascinating. the technology is amazing. pete: absolutely. every one of those javelin

missiles, $110,000. rachel: wow. pete: no minimal investment. will: it is interesting that a navy seal was asking the same question, what does this war look like, with what do these ballots look like and why aren't we seeing it? former president trump gave a rally last night in south carolina and said we would not be looking at the world today in the way that it is if he were in the white house. watch. >> make no mistake, however, that russia would not have dared to annex one inch of territory if i was in the white house. under my leadership america was feared by our enemies, and we were respected by all. the fake news, they are fake, fake news said my possessor if that wouldty -- personality would get us into a war.. i'm telling you, that guy's going to get yous into a war. but, actually, my personality is what kept us out of war. [cheers and applause] i was the only president this

nearly four decades who did not get america into my new conflicts. instead, i wrought our troops and our -- i brought our troops and our wonderful children back home. i brought 'em back home where they belonged. [cheers and applause] pete: tell me where he's wrong. [laughter] rachel: i know, you can't. you cannot deny the proof if, the facts. i mean, that is absolutely the truth. and, you know, even when he was running he said i don't want to get us in any wars, and while he was president, he made a point of i want to meet with people. there is no doubt in my minding that if president trump was in office during this conflict, first of all, i don't think it would have happened because i think emergency had a lot to do with this -- energy had a lot to do with, and he loved energy, fossil fuels, he believed that was our strength. but even if this had happened during those weeks when the russian army was amassing on the border and the biden

administration was putting out to the public, hey, they're going to attack, they're going to attack, i think donald trump would have talked to vladimir putin. i haven't seen joe biden do any kind of -- pete: tried to have phone calls. rachel: yeah, but there was -- even yesterday on fox, i can't remember what show, alicia acuna was on, she was interviewing a general, and he was, like, the diplomatic efforts have been anemic all the way around. this should never have happened, and i believe under donald trump it would not have. pete: the goal that the biden administration set out from the beginning was to deter in this conflict. they said it openly over and over and over again. butyou have weak leadership on the tom -- top and no threat of military force, again, that's what donald trump understood. doesn't mean you're going to use it, but you better threaten you'll use it, because if you don't, they'll continue to do whatever they want and ignore your diplomatic efforts. and that's precisely what

happened with diplomatic sanctions and vladimir putin. it was a failure in the fact that it was not deterred, and and the very rhetoric that a makes some voters uncomfortable that makes foreign leaders uncomfortable -- will: exactly. pete: and they say i don't knowif i want to do this because donald trump might do something about it. will: unpredictability combined with strength -- rachel: economic strength, yeah. will: all types of strength, including economic strength, energy if independence strength, projection of national belligerence strength. the unpredictable aspect of i don't know if the united states will respond forcefully. and in lieu of that regardless of the names attached, you've got a leadership that chose the path of weakness and predictability. take, for example, the concern of wanting to avoid a nuclear conflict. so does the biden administration. however, you cannot combine that ultimate goal with the projection of predictability. we will not give migs because

that could provoke vladimir putin. okay. well, how about you have vladimir putin guessing what you may do instead of you constantly stepping around what he may do? have him avoid a nuclear conflict as much as you are. rachel: but you also don't have to guess what would happen. just think about how donald trump handled ukraine when he was in office. he never promised or offer them, you know, the possibility of entering into nato. but he armed them which was what they actually needed. this administration promised them with that security agreement deal that they made in november and other gestures that they could have a pathway into nato and then didn't arm them so they provoked russia without arming ukraine. i mean, it just doesn't make any sense all the way around. just like it doesn't make sense that that in the middle, as you said, you know, we're keeling

with -- dealing with nuclear war, we were on the air when the nooks went -- nukes went into alert, and in the midst of that the biden administration thinks the it's a really great time to meet with social media influencers and have a tiktok summit. that actually did happen. and it was so ridiculous that even snl, who generally doesn't like to criticize this administration, had to do a spoof on it. take a listen. >> thank you all so much for coming ask answering your nation's call in a time of need. >> oh, yeah, sure. >> hey, no problem. [laughter] >> super flexible. >> yeah, and we love white house. ♪ [laughter] >> i also want to thank my press secretary, jen psaki, for having the vision to set this up. >> i suggested it as a joke, and then it actually happened. [laughter] >> people are saying this is the first war fought on tiktok which is tough for me because i'm the landline of prime ministers.

that's why i need you, okay? if i understand putin, i understand war, but there's one thing i don't understand, computer. [laughter] >> we -- he means technology, but he says computer.

ignore by a lot of public health officials, that's reduced the mortality by about 90. the infection fatality rate is lower, plus omicron is less virulent intrinsically. so what you have now is actually a covid virus that's less dangerous than the traditional flu virus. pete: interesting. and yet we're hearing numbers still today, and i'm reading through the notes for this segment, doctor, you're skeptical right now of the officially reported number of covid deaths coming off the united states. why is that? >> well d1600 reported deaths per day in the united states from covid have a serious math problem. first of all, the infection fatality rate puts us nowhere near that number. second of all, i talk to doctors around the country, large medical centers, and i ask them how many people have you lost at your hospital from covid, maybe 1-2 over the last few weeks.

it's statistically impossible if for that cumulative number to be 1600 per day. what's happening is a lot of incidental positive cases are going down in that number, and we're not seeing a real interest by public health officials to sort out the number and give us the true number. pete: doctor, predictions are dangerous in this game, as we know from the last two years, but if things continue as they are right now, you know, there are seasonal flu shots. how is the sort of -- how will health authorities ace tempt to address covid in the years to come now that the masks are coming off and the mandates are ending and passports are stopping? what does that look like? >> first of all, they're going to have a tough time recommending anything because their credibility is almost completely shot. but what we're going to see is a variant at some point, maybe in the fall if, maybe five years from now, and if that circulates like omicron just did, statistically it's unlikely it'll be nearly as big as the omicronaway, but we're going to

see more elevations of variants in the future, probably more mild, and we may need a specific vaccine for that at that time if it's needed and it's available, we may recommend that. pete: and we also know who's at risk and learn to target that as opposed to mandate it which is one of the greatest sins of the last few years, for sure. dr. marty makary, thank you so much, as always. >> thanks, pete. peter: appreciate it. all right, coming up, gas prices soaring as you can see at this connecticut gas station. former trump economic adviser steven moore reacts coming next. we try to soothe it with this. cool it with this. and relieve it with this. but new preparation h soothing relief spray is the 21st century way to do all three. even touch free. preparation h. get comfortable with it. finally. our honeymoon. it took awhile, but at least we got a great deal on our hotel with kayak. i was afraid we wouldn't go.. with our divorce and....

some type of help from these really, really high prices. back to you. rachel: thank you, todd. well, let's bring in stephen moore, he's a former trump economic adviser and a good friend of our show. stephen, obviously, oil and gas is a big reason we're facing inflation which is affecting us at the grocery store and everything else that's happening in our country. if you were advising president biden, what would you tell him to do about gas and oil and and inflation in general? >> well, rachel, great to be with you. the first thing i'd say is, look, stop the war on american oil and gas. this began from the day joe biden entered office. you know, the spin out of the white house this week, rachel, has been, oh, this is biden -- putin's inflation if, right. and, actually, the truth is if you look at what's happened to the price of gasoline at the pump, rachel, it was about 2.599 a gallon the day that donald trump left office, and now many areas of the country are close

to $5 a gallon, so almost a doubling in the price. and 80% of that that increase happened before putin went into -yard line. the ukraine. so this was a concerted strategy by this white house and the democrats in congress to destroy the american oil and and gas industry. and ors in fact, i'm not making this up, rachel, joe biden had said during the campaign, we want to bankrupt the american oil and gas industry. now they're talking about, rachel, a new tax on the oil and gas industry. how are you going to produce if more oil and gas if you're going to impose higher taxes? if you tax something, joe, you get less of it. so i don't see a strategy by this white house to deal with something that is causing, by the way, the higher oil and gas prices are causing prices of everything else to go up. now we have close to 10% inflation in this country. rachel: yeah. i mean, it wasn't just the democrats wanted to ruin our oil and gas industry, but the

russians did too. right now republicans have a bill, have been asking for more information, because it looks like the russians were actually funding some of the green energy groups out this, nonprofits, because they knew that was a way to ruin our oil and gas and not make us dominant. >> of course. rachel: want to move to another -- >> can i just add one thing? rachel: sure. >> earlier this week pete buttigieg, who is the transportation secretary the, had this bizarre press conference saying, don't worry, because we have electric vehicles. rachel, only 3% of the cars are using electric vehicles. 97% of us are using gasoline at the pump. so the idea that, you know, 20 years from now we're going to have all these electric vehicle ises, it just seems hike they're in outer space in terms of dealing with the rices at hand. -- prices at hand. rachel: it seems like they don't know how most of middle america lives. i wish you were still advising

on economics in america right now, steven moore. >> you know, we need relief because this could be the worst year, 2033, for middle income -- 2022 for middle income families because inflation is just eroding the value of everything that we earn. it's a sad situation and it's an a unforced error. rachel: yeah. totally predictable. stephen moore, always great having you on the show. thank you so much. >> thank you, rachel. rachel: coming up, the u.k. is now offering payments to residents who can shelter ukrainians fleeing their country. an a expert on the global refugee crisis and how russia's war can make it so much worse. ♪ muck this isn't just freight. these aren't just shipments. they're promises. promises of all shapes and sizes. each, with a time and a place they've been promised to be. a promise is everything to old dominion, because it means everything to you. one of my favorite supplements is qunol turmeric.

supporter of it. the u.k. government is suggesting u.k. households can apply within a limited period to have a ukrainian family or family member come and and live with them, somebody they don't necessarily know. and for in the u.k. government will pay that household $450 a month. several big problems with this. the first is they're doing this because there's a massive feeling across europe, as there is in some sense in the united states, seeing these people fleeing ukraine, the 2.5 million who have fled already, there's this feeling of are we doing enough. well, people point out that, of course, the poles have taken in x number of people, and the u.k. has taken in, i think, 50 or something to date. well, of course, because the u.k. isn't a neighboring country. of course neighboring countries are always going to be taking the bulk of any movement of people. but the second thing, the more important thing is all of the studies on migration, particularly migration from war zones, has shown in recent years it's much more desirable to keep

people in the area of the country from which they're fleeing from, all sorts of reasons. one of which is financial. it was shown in 2015 that you could pay for 100 migrants to remain in the area they were fleeing from as compared to the cost of 1 to be, say, flown to norway and encouraged to live there. so there's all sorts of cultural reasons you want to keep people in the area, it's easier for people to return when, hopefully, the war is over: and it's actually just economically much easier to pay for suitable living conditions in the neighboring cubs than to say -- countries than to say let's disperse ukrainian refugees across europe. rachel: right. it makes total sense, absolutely, what you're saying, but clearly politics has something to do with it because when the situation, for example, this afghanistan happened, our government was falling over itself to bring people over. and then i just recently read an

article that they were asked, a lot of people because they are concerned about it, asking why don't they bring them here. and the biden administration says, oh, no, there's no now research that it's best to keep them there. and i'm, like, what happened here? >> there is, left-wing experts have con seeppedded that point i just made. unsurprisingly, politics is in the mix here. i was always amazed with the afghan refugees there wasn't enough attention paid to the people who helped us this afghanistan, helping them specifically. all the other things get caught up in it. when people say we should open our borders to yet more, forget that we've done this a lot in all of our countries. britain in recent years has given asylum, potentially, for millions of people from hong kong because britain feels, quite understandably, historic responsibility. the chinese rolling over, just

closing democracy down in hong kong. but you can't keep doing this every time there's a crisis. much her desirable to be specific in the people how give asylum for. give it to the people who helped your force, give it to the absolutely top deserving people, but the idea that our countries just because terrible things keep happening around the world should keep saying the answer is bring the world to us -- pete: that is a left-wing answer though right now. >> the problem is it satisfies the short-term thing. this terrible war is happening, we should be doing more. obvious people feel that, but there's a long-term consequence from this, and as i said in my 2017 book on migration, "the strength death of europe," you've always got to be careful in that something must be done phase. long-term consequences are with you forever. if. rachel: something must be done, but who must do it, and some of the middle eastern countries could also help. pete: and refuse to.

rachel: we're back with a fox news alert. 35 people are dead after a russian air strike on a military facility in western ukraine, 134 134others are hurt. moments ago, ukrainian president zelenskyy praised his citizens' efforts to fight back. also breaking overnight, a dozen ballistic rockets are launched from iran raining down on the u.s. consulate in iraq.

>> no casualties have been reported in take attack. iran said it was targeting secret israeli military bases. >> alexandria huff is live with the latest. we begin with jonathan hunt with the latest on the overnight strikes. jonathan. >> reporter: well, pete, rachel, this certainly appears to be the most deadly single strike of this war so far. some 30 miles outside of the city of levive where we are now and just a dozen or so miles from the border with poland. the military air base is also home to the international peace making and a security center and it has in the past, recent past, hosted u.s. troops. just in january and february, in u.s. personnel were there

helping to train the ukraine pan counterparts. as we understand it, there were no u.s. personnel whatsoever there at the time of the strike in which eight missiles rained down on the base, 30 were fired in all, according to ukrainian officials. but they say 22 of those were shot out of the sky by ukrainian air defense systems and as i say, all u.s. personnel that we are aware of left that base before the war started. it is hard to overestimate the significance, though, of a strike such as this, so close to the border with he poland. as i say, just a dozen miles away. if you think of an air rant missile -- errant missile, the damage that could do if it flew a dozen miles or so further, and hit poland, that would be a direct strike on a fully-fledged member of nato. that would trigger article 5 that says that an attack on one is an attack on all and that

would bring nato directly into this conflict. so again, 35 at least killed in what is the deadliest air strike so far of this war. u.s. personnel have been at that base, they were not there when those missiles struck. but this is a significant development and a very dangerous one, could yet bring nato into this war because it is getting much, much closer now. pete, will, rachel. >> jonathan, thank you for that update. follow-up question here. so i hear you very, very clearly that no u.s. personnel are reported at that facility. let me ask you this. the nature of that facility, we talk a lot about supply chain, about the resplie supply of the ukrainian -- resupply of the ukrainian military. was that base in your estimation serving a role in bringing weaponry into ukraine. secondarily, jonathan, i hear you again on u.s. what about other nationalities

involved in the casualty, what about polish, what about other personnel other thanukrainan military. >> reporter: we're working to get the nationalities of those killed nobody is telling us where the weapon supplies are coming from and the route to ukraine. you're right, given how close the military base is to poe of land, it wouldn't be too much of astretch to assume some of the supplies may be passing through that base on the way to ukrainian troops on the front lines. so, yes, it is possible. we do not know for sure. we might not know for sure for some time. one other point i want to bring you. we are getting local reports that the number of injured may have gone up as high as 250. one of our local translators

here has been told by doctors on the scene that some of the injuries they are seeing are among the most horrific they have ever witnessed. will, pete, rachel. >> thank you, jonathan. i think it's worth noting, we are within a 24 hour win he dough, i believe, roughly, of vladimir putin saying that any reshipment or supplying of ukrainian soldiers would be considered an act of aggression and a he would be targeting those efforts. >> he did pension that. it wasn't just in response to the possibility of migs been introduced which we've been debating for a number of years. it was as more advanced anti-aircraft systems, that's what vladimir putin is most concerned about. 30 rockets shot, 22 shot out of the sky. if you can shoot out planes or rockets, that undercuts what vladimir putin would like to do, dominating the sky. >> this is an incredible moment, one we should explore with calm but if in fact those

dead and injured aren't just ukrainians, that is going to ask for a response from some of the nations that might or might not be involved. rachel: that might be why we don't know yet that answer. maybe there's a little bit of a pause. >> one little detail real quick. the florida national guard was training at that base with ukrainians up until february of 2022. so it was one of the most primary western training facilities. could it be symbolic as well? i don't know. americans were there less than a month ago. rachel: it's really great update on that, pete. we're going to go to trey yingst because he's joining us on the phone right now with some breaking news. trey. >> reporter: yeah, we have some really unfortunate news to report from ukraine. just outside the city in a town called airpine where there are refugees trying to get out of harm's way. two americans were shot today and one killed. both journalists. that's as far as we know in terms of the information that we have right now and can confirm.

but to give you a sense of this area, there have been many journalists including our own crews there over the past week documenting what's happening as ukrainian forces try hold a front line from the russian advance and this information that we're learning right now indicating from someone on the ground whos was at the scene that these two journalists got into a car to go closer to where the front line was at and ultimately they were shot. we don't know who shot them but this is an active war zone and, again, we can confirm at this hour that one american civilian journalist was killed just outside the capital of kyiv. >> that's terrible to hear, trey. do we have any ability to ascertain or get a sense of whether or not russians would have known these are americans, would have known these are reporters? again, i know it's just early

but any other details you can add as far as how far away were the people shooting at them, that kind of thing? >> reporter: i don't want to get too far ahead in terps of the information about this incident u because we're gathering information on this. i can give you a sense of where they were at and how they got to that location because we were there on friday and basically there is an area, a town of about 60,000 people and it's the front line of this conflict right now on the northwestern side of kyiv. and basically a bridge has been taken out there. ukrainians bombed it in an effort to stop the russian advance and many civilians, thousands have been crossing the bridge from two towns that currently are partially controlled by russian forces so it is the location where one of the stories around this conflict is taking place and so journalists are going there to document the evacuees and those who are trying to flee the russian advance and these journalists went to an area just

next to that bridge in order to get closer to the front and according to our source on the ground, they approached a checkpoint and were shot. we don't know if this was an area that was controlled by the russians or ukrainians at this point but those journalists according to photos i viewed had protective gear on. there was another journalists injured and a video clip of him as he's being treated says the man who was killed was shot in the neck. that's all the information we have about that specific shooting. but they would have clearly been marked as journalists. they had press credentials on them and it's unclear what exactly led up to the moment they were shot. >> at a checkpoint, that is a detail we're hearing for the first time, trey. thank you for that. we've been talk throughout the morning about the nature of the coverage, the video you see from -- or you do not see from the front line. as it informs this story, trey, can you just give us some insight. are reporters embedded with

ukrainian forces, are they driving around, moving around independently. do you have your own security force that accompanies the journalists security detail that accompanies journalist as they move around the countryside. how do you negotiate ukraine? >> every crew is different. and on the ground right now every place that you go has its own obstacles and so we travel with a security team. some journalists do not. but each day you have to make a calculation and a risk assessment about how far you want to go and how close you want to get to the front, where things are happening. so today for example, we went to the eastern side of kyiv where a few days ago a russian tank column advanced on the capital ands was immediately met fierce resistance by ukrainian forces. we spoke with many troops that were pushing back the russians and russian forces were a few kilometers away from where we were at today and they've actually stopped the advance on that one road but like i said,

it's changing each and every day. and that's why you have the to reassess every morning before you go out and gather information. in terms of the ability to embed with ukrainian forces, most of the time you're not able to do that. it's early on in the conflict and those forces are focused on fighting the war. there are members of the territorial defense, these are largely reserve forces, that are participating and so we've spoken with a number of them. we've spoken with soldiers in the army. but the ability to embed with them in locations around kyiv right now is not possible and no one's doing it. in the few churks it may be a possibility-future, it may be a possibility. we are getting more images from the army and the ukrainians are fighting a fierce resistance on the outskirts of the city. we've seen the video provided by the military here. it shows the use of anti-tank missiles, stinger missiles, different small arms that they're using to really meet the russian forces outside the city and try the to hold those firm lines. rachel: trey, you mentioned the checkpoint. have you been warned at any

point that approaching a checkpoint would be a dangerous thing to do or is that something that, you know, you would, for example, think you could safely do? >> every checkpoint is different and in a town like airpine where we have reported extensively for three days over the past week and-a-half, we've been in this area, it's difficult to know which streets are safe and which streets are not safe and so when we report a checkpoint, we do not know if that was ukrainian or russian checkpoint. we're gathering the information at this point. early reports indicate they were shot by russian forces but i can independently-i cannot independently confirm who shot the journalists. it's important to note the front lines are changing all the time so any given day you could go down a street and the next day you go to the same street and it's controlled by russian forces. we found that when we were there, you would go down one street and sometimes ukrainian soldiers or civilians would start flagging you down and tell

you to turn around because the russians were that close and while we were in the town on friday, there were russian shells landing all around a neighborhood. we brought this story to fox but we interviewed a man who was blind and he was stuck in this town and as we were at his house speaking with him the russian shells were falling in the neighborhood so it gives you a sense of just how close the front lines are and as a journalist when you approach a checkpoint you have to always be prepared, not knowing what could take place. but such a tragic story that we are learning today, one american journalist killed and, again, we cannot independently confirm where the shots were fired from. >> trey, we're all measured in moments like this to make sure to not get ahead of information. first reports can often be wrong. you've been measured in this as well. we're now getting confirmation on our end from the new york times that it was a new york times reporter who was killed on the ground and they put out a statement just moments ago on behalf of him.

new york times saying we are deeply saddened to hear of brent rinaud's death. he was a talented film maker who contributed to the new york times over the years. he contributed in the past, most recently in 2015 he was not on assignment at any desk at the times in ukraine. he was wearing a times press badge that had been issued for an assignment many years ago. so trey, the new york times confirming the name of the journalist who had at times worked with the new york times but appears to have been working in some other independent form there. >> reporter: i can also independently confirm the name, obviously we always want to be careful before we name these journalists or anyone killed in conflicts so their family can be notified but now that a public statement is issued i can independently confirm that is the journalist. he is a film maker, a very decorated film maker and you according the to a source that we have on the ground he was

taken out by ukrainian forces after this happened. again, we don't know exactly where within that team. >> he was evacuated by ukrainian forces you're saying. >> reporter: correct, he was taken out, evacuated, yes, taken out of the area by ukrainian forces, evacuated by those soldiers who were able to get him and his colleagues out of this area. >> trey yingst, thank you for that update. >> can i ask one more question, i'm sincerely curious. you kind of asked it. trey, the nature of the fighting on the front lines, and you did talk about it, but because this is a reporter. reporters are not -- you work very hard, trey, not to be a part of the story. you're reporting what's happening there. but when you get that front in this case tragically an american journalist has become a part of the story, in iraq and afghanistan if you were an embedded reporter you could count on the protection of an american unit that you were traveling with, you lived with, you were housed with and would ultimately take care of you if

you're in hostile combat situation so you got pictures from the front lines because of that security. based on your experience, how much different is your calculation of risk. you talked about risk assessment. you can't count on anybody being there. i mean, maybe some personal security. you said some journalists don't have any security at all. so if you're in a vehicle approaching a checkpoint, you're counting on the forces there, be that russian or ukrainian, to be able to decipher whether this is a civilian vehicle, a military vehicle or a press vehicle. i can't imagine balancing that kind of ambiguity. >> reporter: it can be quite difficult. we are experienced in these areas of conflict and you always try stay calm and try to communicate as much as you can even if you're not directly speaking the language. we travel with a fixer translator and also a security member in each one of our vehicles but the reality is,

people are being killed around us in these areas so people who are at checkpoints, soldiers are quite on edge and anything had that moves often can be a target. we experienced that today even on the front lines in the east, speaking with these soldiers. you have to approach very slowly wherever you go and in a place like airpine where the tragedy took place today it is very messy. street to street, things can change and there are a lot of brave journalists on the front lines. they don't want to become the story. they want to capture the story and shine light in this very dark area but it can be extremely difficult to make that calculation and it's part of why we rely on our security teams to gather as much information as they can throughout the day while we're focused on reporting and in the morning they can brief us. we actually planned to go to this area today and our security team checkedded in and we made the decision to go to a different area but each and every day, every person who is out here covering the story will make a calculation and they'll make a decision and head to that

location to report the news. rachel: we're grateful your security team gave you good advice. trey, it was great talking to you. please stay safe. we're praying for you. i talked to him yesterday, by the way, when i was on the big saturday show and i asked him about his safety and the professional a that he is, he's like no, this is the job we do and he didn't want to talk too much about. he said we take our precautions. i'm sure today all journalists reporting from there are on heightened alert. >> he said i was almost going to that very spot today. man -- rachel: yeah, wow. >> let's bring in florida gop senator rick scott, a member of the senate armed services committee and senate homeland security committee. let's get your reaction to the breaking news of the morning. >> it's terrible. i mean, my heart goes out to the family of the individual that was killed and i hope the other individual has a full recovery but i mean, putin is just an

absolute murderous thug. we all have to wake up to -- this is a dangerous world. we have horrible people that want to harm innocent civilians and take away democracy, whether it's putin in russia or xi in china or the ayatollah in iran. we have got to really think about how do we take care of people. i mean, i'm glad that we finally did the aid on thursday. i don't know why it took so long to get the aid done. i don't know why it had to be tied to a ridiculous spending bill. i wish that we had a president that understood you basically have to do all -- everything, don't take anything off the table, don't tell the enemy what you're going to do, every day wake up and spend your whole day saying what else could we do to help the ukrainian people. i pray for them. i pray that putin ends up in prison along with everybody

that's helped him for a long time. but in the meantime, we have got to get going here and help doing everything we can to help ukraine, get the planes. i don't know why in the world those polish planes are not there. it makes you mad, this stuff's not happening. >> senator, we've discussed on this program the rhetoric coming from vladimir putin, the threats he's making of escalation, that he would target supply lines and weapons, likely planes if they were brought in from poland. overnight we're hearing reports that a military facility outside of lviv, the far western part of the country, almost 12 miles from he poland, was attacked with rockets, over 30 people killedded, over 100 people wounded at this military training facility. putin seems to be moving west and maybe he's targeting the supply lines, maybe he's targeting air field as we covered yesterday. there's airfields in the west he's targeting. the idea of moving west means

he's moving closer to he poland. >> first off, putin doesn't dictate terms of american support. we dictate the terms of american support. putin's going to -- putin's a thug. he's going to bully. he's going to do everything he can. we have to have an administration that says we're going to help the ukrainian people. congress, we committed billions of dollars. that aid's got to get there. i'm still furious about the polish planes. those should have already been there to help the ukrainian pilots. i mean, this -- we have got to get going here. biden's slow about everything. we've got to help them and by the way, i mean, putin doesn't dictate our terms. we dictate what we do. we were the strongest military in the world, we've got the strongest economy in the world. we dictate what we do, not putin. >> senator, do you have any information -- there are reports, pete was telling us earlier there were american forces training ukrainian force as recently as a month ago at the facility in western ukraine that was bombed. the reports of 35 at a minimum,

up to 200 potentially injured in this attack. do you have any insight? you're on the armed services committee. as to what was going on at this facility if not americans, were there international troops? was it a supply center for the ukrainian military? what was going on right there at i believe it's pronounced yavariv military training center. >> it's my understanding the florida national guard, we've had -- we've got a great national guard in our state -- was helping training ukrainians, preparing for this. i don't know if there's international forces there. for everybody that lost their lives because of putin's murderous acts, my heart goes out to them and their family. but i don't have additional information. i just hope the world wakes up and says why in the god's green earth are we doing anything to help russia, why would we ever do anything to help communist china because we know they want

to destroy our way of life. china wants to invade taiwan. are we putting ourselves in a position that all of the sanctions we've been able to do against putin and we have more we should be doing, will we be able to do the same thing against communist china or are we dependent on them for pharmaceuticals. we can't just rely on american military to do everything, we've got to do our part and a make sure these economies, the russian and chinese economies are held accountable for what they've now the case of russia what they've done and what china is threatening to do in taiwan. rachel: i highly doubt that the corporations that have so quickly jumped on board to have sanctions and use financial tools against russia as punishment will do the same against china, at least not close to that scale. i want to move to another topic with you. as you know, the reports that iran fired 12 ballistic rockets near the u.s. cons -- consistent

consulatein iraq. they are using russia as a surrogate in negotiations. at what point does the administration become so embarrassed that this is their strategy versus going to our own energy production which is so abundant and we're so blessed with it. >> you know, rachel, it's like a bad movie that we're going to have for the next almost three years. i mean, you don't get it. what is this administration thinking about -- i mean, doing anything with iran at all, and let russia negotiate for us and then they go down to meet with maduro in venezuela, a guy that's killing his own citizens, causing unrest throughout latin america. who are these people? where do they come from? do they have any -- are they

thinking about americans and our safety? because these actions they're taking, by talking to -- doing something with iran which is going to hurt israel, our ally. it makes no sense. by the way, when i talk to them, they can't explain it. there's no explanation. i mean, they just want to sort of change the subject but they can't explain it. so i mean, i just don't get it. it scares you to death had a that we've got three more years of a president and administration that is not thinking about putting america first. >> absolutely. rachel: senator, thank you so much for joining us this morning. >> appreciate it. >> thank you. >> if you're just joining us, we are learning this hour an american journalist has been killed in ukraine. rachel: the new york times confirming journalist brent renaud was shot and killed in airpine. the news outlet says he used to work for them. >> we go to benjamin hall, live in kyiv.

>> reporter: of course, shocking, sad news there today, the death will hit a lot of people in the community in a big way. airpine is a town 10 odd miles from where we are now, where a lot of the journalists -- lot of teams going up there to witness the shelling around kyiv itself, to witness the civilians trying to flee. it's the same place where a few days ago you saw shocking images of the family, the two children and two adults who were killed by a mortar, it's a focal point of the attack on the city of kyiv itself. there were reports that it would be particularly dangerous to go there. there was a decision taken by our team not to push up there. but this is a town that has fallen into russian hands. ukrainians re-pelled them. it's come back and forth had for some time now. there are images showing brent being carried across the bridge, the bridge where we witnessed people fleeing the town in the past. i want to read what the new york times said. he was wearing a new york times

press badge but it's been confirmed he was not on you assignment for them. they said we are deeply saddened to hear of his death, he was a talented film maker who contributed to the new york times over the years. most recently he contributed in 2015. he was not on a signment for any desk at the time in ukraine. early reports that he worked for the times circulated because he was wearing a times press badge that was issued for an assignment many years aping. so just a reminder of the danger that journalists face over ear, that the russians are killing indiscrime natalie. he was marked at press. we believe he was shot in the neck. a sad day here. a reminder that this is a brutal, active war. everyone this the crosshairs. >> benjamin, thank you. how do you identify the front lines in this conflict? are you -- do you find a portion of the ukrainian forces and say how far are you up from there or are you trying to identify based on looking at soldiers, is it

reports you get from intel? how do you know? >> reporter: it's very difficult sometimes. because they move. had they move quite quickly. sometimes at night you'll have shelling that pushes the troops back and in the day ukraine pans will repel. around the city there are dug trenches, trenches dug in which demarkate the specific boundaries. beyond that, the contested areas, there are no set lines. when the russians are shelling, the lines move very quickly. so it's difficult to tell. yes, you speak to ukrainians and commanders on the ground and other journalists, you speak to fixers, try to gather as much information as you can about where you're going. if you want to tell the true story about what's happening on the ground you have to go to where it's happening and in the last few days that has been the town of airpine where this tragedy happened. rachel: benjamin, thank you for joining us this morning.

please stay safe. >> stay safe indeed. >> reporter: thanks. >> we are staying on top of breaking news, an american journalist killed while in ukraine. we're awaiting a response from the white house as well as from overseas and we will continue our coverage after a short break. when we found out our son had autism, his future became my focus. lavender baths calmed him. so we made a plan to turn bath time into a business. ♪ ♪ find a northwestern mutual advisor at nm.com why is guy fieri in the neighbors' kitchen? it's slider sunday! sliiiiiiiiii-der sunday! these chicken parm sliders on king's hawaiian rolls are fire! slider sunday! i want that. everything's better between king's hawaiian bread. mmm! we're a different kind of dentistry. everything's better between king's hawaiian bread. one who believes in doing anything it takes to make dentistry work for your life. so we offer a complete exam and x-rays free to new patients without insurance - everyday. plus, patients get 20% off their treatment plan.

side is upping the ante, continuing to cross new boundaries, issuing new transgressions. here an american journalist was killed. we're still learning the facts, this aappears to be a violation of the cease fire terms. the longer we allow the aggressors to be able to take more ground without facing consequence, the more emboldened they will be. i think this administration made a mistake in continuing to ratchet up pressure, playing from behind in my opinion, as opposed to taking short of military force the fullest response on day one and i think that in retrospect as long as we're playing from behind, we're going to continue to invite more aggression and i think at some point we're going to have to get ahead of the curve, short of military action, by going to the full extent short of military action to show that we ultimately mean no and this was a new boundary that was crossed this morning, sad news today to see an american journalist killed. >> what do you think the full extent is and just thinking through the what if scenario which the three of us were doing

on the couch in the commercial break, when you look at that military training center, 12 miles from the polish border. what if there polish troops there, what if there were u.s., cia, or covert operations, what if there were u.s. veterans there to joined the foreign legion that were killed. the what ifs were a multitude and what might russia have known about who was there and therefore targeted intentionally. you see a lot of ways in which through vladimir putin's actions this could escalate. >> yeah. look, there's a paraox in philosophy, is when does a pile or grain of sand become a heap. every time they push the boundary they set a new term for the red line, they moved the red line one inch further and further. what i think we've been doing so far is playing from behind. ultimately, saying we know we're not going to take military action. we said that at the outset. but they're able to push the

boundary one inch at a time and at some point we have to shift the dynamic and go to the full extent of the nonmilitary ans we were going to put in place and we could talk about the scope that, economic and otherwise. ultimately, ice of lating russia not -- isolating russia not one step at a time but being one step ahead of it that deters us from getting into military conflict. by saying we're not going to get into military conflict and by allowing them to be ahead of in terms of testing what action we will or won't take, that is the likeliest path to end up in military conflict because eventually they'll cross a down descry that everyone will say is too far even to take military action against. that's what i fear and i think that action we need to show strength to the full go, right up to the line, short of military action to be able to say at least this is where we've drawn the line and this is where it will stop. we haven't had the spine to do that yet. that's what we need to do. rachel: everyone on this couch believes in the reagan philosophy on peace through

strength and i think we lost that edge when joe bidens was elected, certainly after the withdrawal fromrom afghanistan. that said, a lot of the experts that we've had on the show have said that putin would not respond to economic sanctions. do youve that? no matter you how far we -- >> i think it's a good point, it's a good debate to v it's possible. we don't get to have the answer to that question when we ratchet them up gradually. i hate monday morning quarterbacking this stuff, because these are hard decisions real people are making in real time. the right decision is not to level them up gradually but take the full force of economic sanctions. at least we would have known the answer to that question. now we'll know the answer to the question because we ratcheted up slowly enough that they weren't bothered by any incremental step alone. you're right to bring up afghanistan. this is what we saw with the taliban making a different calculus with biden than they did with trump to say they know the other side won't use

extraordinaire rise force when they need to use it most, that's when they take the risk, whether they're taliban, putin or any aggressive abroad. mark my words, i think they're a saying this for a good reason, china is watching carefully with its eyes on taiwan next. >> you read my mind on the next question. as the author of woke inc. you see what companies are doing, voluntarily, saying we're not going to do business in russia. would they do the same -- >> exactly. >> would they do the same in china and what is china reading from this situation? >> china is reading that ultimately there are limits to the strength of the west and you know what, here's the difference between russia and china is that our companies are actually really dependent on china in a way that make them trojan horses to advance the chinese agenda from within the united states. that's something you never saw in russia during the cold war, something you don't see in russia today. russia played a version of this game where they were ultimately quietly supporting the so-called esg movement in the west that cut oil and gas production in europe and the united states to increase reliance on russia.

china is that situation on steroids. not just for gas and for oil, but for nearly everything else we rely on. so i'm afraid you have to say mark my words that the day china invades taiwan, most institutional elites in america will encourage us to sit and watch it happen in slow motion and i fear xi jinping knows it. rachel: you're 100% right on that. i've spoken to different leaders of companies who have taken action on russia and asked them that same question and they said well that's a lot more complicated. so there's your answer. >> great to talk to you this morning. thank you. rachel: thank you, vivek. >> good to talk to you guys. >> we're staying on top of the latest developments from ukraine as we learn an american journalist was killed in irpin. our coverage continues after a short break. >> tech: cracked windshield? make it easy and schedule with safelite, because you can track us and see exactly when we'll be there. >> woman: i have a few more minutes. let's go! >> tech vo: that's service that fits your schedule. go to safelite.com. >> singers: ♪ safelite repair, safelite replace. ♪

situation and fast developing. the congress will have serious decisions to make now in terms of sending vladimir putin a message. i can tell you for sure, i was on the phone all weekend with various people about this conflict right now and what i took away from in all of my phone calls is the strategy of this administration has been underwhelming and not enough. many people are expecting that the end of ukraine is near, that this situation is pretty much pointing to a slow death for ukraine because of this slow walking of a response. in terms of the mig jets to ukraine from poland, that's one head scratcher for sure. what's the difference between these fighter jets and the javelins that the u.s. has sent to support ukraine? people do not have answers for that. it seems that there is a pre-determined outcome here in place and that is a slow death

for ukraine and president zelenskyy as the russian forces continue to inch closer, with all of these other fatalities that we're talking about and some people have told me over the weekend that they feel that at the end of the day this administration does not see putin as the enemy, they see him as a partner on many issues. they see him as a partner on climate change. they see him as a partner on the iran deal. when is this administration going to get serious in telling vladimir putin we are done with partnerships. that means no iran deal. walk away. no more renegotiating on americas behalf, no more products from russia, truly a pa pari a ah for the world but we're not there yet and i don't know how many more deaths we're going to be talking about until we get there but it seems that right now the outcome is pretty clear, with russian forces

getting closer and closer to the capital and these provocative moves right near the poland border and near u.s. military installations. that's what i've got in terms of the sources that i've been speaking with. we're going to talk with mike pompeo today, his first interview since returning from taiwan. he has another angle to bring to bear in terms of what he is hearing from taiwan and what's next over the horizon once we get through the massive conflict. what is china thinking, the ccp, in terms of its future plans. john ratcliffe has breaking news on the iran negotiators, what's going on behind the scenes in terms of russia. by the way, they still have a target on mike pompeo's back. they want mike pompeo dead. the iranians have said he is one of the former trump officials they want dead. this is the group that the administration, the current

administration is negotiating with indirectly. the group that wants mike pompeo dead. so he will join us this morning. john ratcliffe will join us this morning with the intelligence end of it and then we will talk with senator lindsey graham. he's been saying for weeks now that he wants to see vladimir putin taken out by the russian people. he wants to see either an arrest or an assassination. where is he now with the latest information that an american citizen is dead, that we are seeing 35 dead, 134 injured, because of this latest provocation. chemical weapons, we don't know. nuclear weapons. we don't know. we don't know what is vladimir putin's plan and where he will did next. when will the administration start talking seriously about losing this -- about winning this for ukraine and russia losing this. we're going to talk about it this morning. we also have gary casperoff on this morning, knows putin well.

he's been jailed by putin, says he's the richest man in the world. what will it take and what are putin's plans. we'll talk about that as well this morning when we get underway in 10 minutes but there's no other outcome to come up with, knowing where we are and this slow-walking approach by the u.s. and nato countries. what are we afraid of? this is terrorism. there's no other of way to look at it. is it not terrorism? rachel: it is. i think what people are afraid of, maria, is the possibility of a nuclear war because as you said, we don't know what putin's thinking. maria, you sound like you have an amazing lineup, everyone's definitely stay tuned for sunday morning few churs. >> thanks, maria. rachel: thank you, maria. maria: we'll see you in 10 minutes. rachel: a nonprofit is on the ground working to help ukrainians escape the war. edward graham joins us next on the efforts of samaritan's purse

>> staying on top of a fox news alert, we learned 40 minutes ago an american journalist has been killed in irpin, ukraine. we don't know the circumstances at this time.

>> as ukrainians flee their war-torn country to poland, one organization is setting up a field hospital to care for the wounded and most vulnerable. rachel: edward graham just got home in ukraine and he joins us live. edward, thank you for joining this morning. we love the work that's being done by samaritan purse, trustful of how the funds are used. tell me what did you see inin and what are the needs -- see in ukraine and what are the needs you think are most pressing at this moment? >> i appreciate that. thanks for having me on. to be there and see it in person, it's hard to watch. i was at teen train station and -- at the train station in he lviv and you're watching thousands of people learning. the border alone, the traffic line was 17-kilometers line, the human line was 2-kilometers long. the people are staying days out inthe cold, freezing, trying to

get out of there. i've seen cold weather injuries, a lot of exhaustion, a lot of stomach problems. the people are struggling and they're scared. it felt like it should be in black and white. i'm seeing the train station, the people coming off the train, it seems like world war ii films where we saw people fleeing nazi germany. they haven't had a movement like this in europe since world war ii. rachel: you provide medical help as well. i heard you talk about medical needs as well. tell us what kinds of facilities you have there to help. >> yeah, we immediately responded. we've been there for about 17 days on the ground. we had our assessors go in. we set up a tier 3 surgical hospital in lviv, this will help treat people that are fleeing the conflict but also that have battle injuries. we also saw the need for a step-down clinic at the train station and these are assessing cold weather injuries, treating heart attacks, just people overwhelmed by the trauma. we've treated between there and a our clinic in muldova at the

border there, a couple hundred patients in the last few days. our tier 3 clinic will be operational today. we expect the capital, kyiv to fall, more and more of these trauma patients will be pulled back to be receive. lviv. if kyiv falls it will be the new political capital. that's what we set up in preparation. today we'll be already seeing people, surgical patients come into that facility. >> wow. what great need and what great response and this enters, edward, the lent season. obviously every year, no matter the year, an important part of the year for christians but of increased significance perhaps in this moment. rachel: edward? did we lose him. >> lost you there for a second i know we're talking about lent. for christians it's extremely

important holiday. easter is the reason, it's the most important holiday and leading up with lent, the whole point of it is fasting in preparation. for me, fasting has always been important. i fasted when i made big decisions in my life. but the reason is getting humble. the bible says fasting creates humility and humility helps you hear from the lord. as we prepare for easter, jesus decide on the cross for the whole world, that we may have eternal life. it was a gift begin by grace. we can't earn it. it was a gift from god, his son, jesus christ. i want the world to know that that's why i prepare in lent with fasting with my own family but i'm praying right now and fasting for ukraine. we prepare this easter holiday season, wanting them to know that jesus christ loves them, even with this conflict. samaritan's purse goes to love our neighbors. we don't do it because it's the right thing to do, we do it because god commands us. we want them to know the love of

jesus christ and what happened on easter, hes is risen, he's not in the grave. he's alive. >> what a powerful sentiment. rachel: it's one of the things we love about the organization, it's a christian organization that knows its purpose. it's a time of fasting. it's also a time of alms giving. we encourage those who want to give to samaritan's purse to do so. we thank you for getting on the ground so quickly and doing such important work. thank you for joining us today on "fox & friends." >> edward graham, thank you so much. >> thank you so much. appreciate you having us. rachel: god bless. >> such amazing work but also of i wouldn't say cold, just the calculated way in which he said kyiv is likely going to fall and when it does, lviv will probably become the political capital of the company and we pray and a hope it does not but those kind of straightforward decisions are the ones you have to make when you operate on the ground. rachel: when you say about the train, it feels like a world war ii situation and the treatment

of not just heart attacks but people really suffering from the cold and from the trek, it's just unbelievable stuff. >> if you're just joining us there's three major developments this morning we've been following. one actually in iraq as iran fires a dozen missiles into iraq near in the vicinity of the american consulate, an unmanned american consulate. no injuries reported in that act of aggression. which should be noted at this moment in history, iran seeing a need or seeing an opportunity to push forward their own agenda. second, the reports of an american journalist, a former new york times documentary film maker who has been killed in irpin, outside of kyiv and finally the bombing in western ukraine of the military training center, the most deadly bombing yet reported with right now 35 5 dead, perhaps up to 200 injured. the big question is who was

among the injured and what role was the training facility playing in the conflict. let's go to this fox news alert, more on all of these stories. let's go to lviv where mike tobin can report to us the latest. mike. >> reporter: well, i can tell you the latest as far as the air strike goes. this is the third missile strike the west of ukraine has seen in three days, the most recent about 20 miles from this location at a brace that was bad as recently as february as by the florida national guard. it's the international peace keeping and security center. the base is just 60 miles from the closest location of u.s. troops, the 82nd airborne is stationed just across the border in poland. the lviv mayor noting that air strike posted a message to facebook, asking the u.s. and nato rhetorically do you now understand that war is closer than you imagine. that particular strike killed 35 people and injured many more.

it's interesting to see -- well, well see through time what will develop from that strike. okay. thank you very much. >> thanks for the latest. rachel: that's the question, great summary and that's the question, will this escalate. >> exactly. coverage continues in just three seconds. have a great sunday. ♪♪ maria: welcoming good sunday morning. welcome to "sunday morning futures." i am maria bartiromo. russian terrorists, no other way to describe the thugs that have captured and -- murdered women and children and nuclear threats. debate limits to their support. temperatures today. mike pompeo is here. the threat of communist china.
