hezbollah want two year old 203 today. two of the drones were intercepted by the third but we are told came dangerously close to home of benjamin netanyahu he claims it was an assassination attempt by quote agents of iran. this is a brand-new hour of "fox news live" hello everyone thank you for joining us i'm eric shawn hi arthel. arthel: hello eric, hello everyone i'm arthel neville. the prime minister and his wife were not home at the time of the drone attack and there were no casualties the brazen attack by hezbollah comes one day after the group threatened to escalate its conflict with israel. it also comes on the heels of the death of hamas leader yahya sinwa who was killed by idf forces this week. sinwa is widely believed to be the mastermind behind the deadly october 7 attacks on israel. his death has rocked the region already on the edge of an all out war.

before prime minister netanyahu is defiant saying he will win this war for the people of israel. matt finn on the ground in tel aviv with more on that. >> the assassination attempt happened not far from where i am here in tel aviv. we will get to that in just a moment. but first we want to show you new video just in. the idf shows hamas leader yahya sinwa and his family fling into an underground tunnel prior to the october 7 massacre a little over a year ago for the idf said it found this footage just a few months ago and has now declassified it. very chilly video showing yahya sinwa basically taking cover ahead of the october 7 massacre. also, drone video shows the final moments of the sinwa's life this week. he is camouflaged amongst the rubble and gaza.

he is sitting in the chair on the left. sinwa was considered the de facto leader of hamas. perhaps enemy number one the mastermind of october 7. his death his sparked speculation that perhaps hamas will disarm. however hamas says sinwa's death will not end and its mission. early today prime minister benjamin netanyahu said there is an assassination attempt on his life. drone was launched from lebanon instructing her his home. the map on the screen, netanyahu and his wife are not homer's office of the drone targeted his house they are calling it an attempted assassination. the strike was one of dozens if not hundreds of rockets launched from lebanon into northern israel. today our fox queue has seen some in the sky be idf set a 51 your old man is dead, 14 people injured today. netanyahu released a video short while ago responding to the attempted assassination. also hamas leader yahya sinwa.

>> two days ago we took out jen for the terrorist mastermind whose goons and beheaded our men, raped our women, burned to babies alive. took them out and continue with our battle with other terrorist proxies. were going to win this war. >> in response to the attempted assassination of netanyahu today, israel carried out at least three large airstrikes in beirut suburbs. targeting populated areas home to hezbollah offices. the idf has released multiple messages urging the public and not to believe it rumors circulating some hostages were recovered from gaza. at last count there were 101 hostages remaining in gossiper the idf says the rumors are not true they are only hurting that families even more.

>> around behind the terror. matt finn thank you. arthel: israel's military killed three top terrorist leaders since july including the leaders of hezbollah and hamas. they will keep fighting until israel pulls its forces from gaza. let's bring in retired u.s. army major general he is also the author hunting the caliphate. america's war on isis and the dawn of the strike cell. general, i'll start by asking should israel maintain pressure? and if shut so how should that be carried out? >> good afternoon. yes, israel should maintain pressure. once you have your foot on someone's neck, on the enemy's neck you keep going. they have momentum. there fighting on multiple fronts they have the leadership

was decimated however has immense capability they have tens of thousands of missiles and drones that can be fired at israel. but israel must keep up the momentum. the same thing with hamas. hamas is some level of capability. their ranks have been decimated also as far as their leadership. it's time for israel to press the attack hence a better and stronger position as far as peace overtures in the future. but right now they must launch the attack they have the advantage. >> i want to get to the peace talk and a second or the possibilities you mentioned how strong hezbollah is can they overpower israeli defense systems? >> if hezbollah were to fire all its missiles at a time the answer is yes. it's highly unlikely they will

do that. but they have that kind of capability. >> what would happen should it come to hand to hand combat? guerrilla warfare? >> they can go block to block house to house and show it and gaza they've shown in southern lebanon. israel still has the advantage. the issue now also is who is backing hezbollah and hamas. which is of course iran. iran as part of the problem obviously we are also waiting israel's response the reigning attack. next to follow-up questions one is about iran. how do you stop ironic? he also mentioned we ask about hand-to-hand combat you say idf

is what about these civilians in lebanon? the general population, are they in danger? i would say yes to an extent. as long as hezbollah hides behind civilians, civilians are in danger. that puts more pressure on the israelis to be more selective where they are attacking hezbollah. but allredfact.com tate is putting an danger pipe hiding behind civilians. go ahead. >> no, you go ahead. as far as iran, iran has obviously a lot of capabilities. so that it is in fact a deterrent. with two historic attacks by iran against israel this year. in april 2024 and october 1.

so whatever the targets are that israel is going to strike, it's got to be a deterrent. that would probably beat strategic targets like the oil refineries. possibly nuclear capability but certainly the oil refineries. an oil production. arthel: idf is definitely capable of specialized pinpointed targets. let me move on to this. i want to read a statement from national security council play some soundtrack national security councilman kirby. >> look at what the israeli defense forces have been able to do against hamas. they really decimated their leadership now it knock at the top leader himself. they have, without question, completely eliminated any immediate threats that hamas would pose for a military

perspective. the hamas is in it much, much, much we can position than it was before. >> to your points, what does this mean for a cease-fire and for the hostages still in gaza? >> i think insistence on a cease-fire at this point makes no sense based on the reality on the ground. the israelis clearly have the advantage. ultimately this to be settled in peace talks. so eventually a cease-fire. but hamas has been very defiant. there's still more fighting that needs to take place so that hamas is in the position where they will need to sue for peace. ultimately this will be settled at the peace table if there's going to be any kind of a long lasting stability for both israel and the future palestinian state. that's what needs to take place.

arthel: unfortunately it does not seemed like the more immediate solution and getting hostages home by way of a cease-fire. it's not going to happen right away. at least what i am understanding understand youare saying but ifd understand confirm that. >> hamas is not in a position right now to bargain hostages. what prime minister netanyahu said he released the hostages we will allow your fighters to live by the best way hostages can come back and be released. absolutely thank you. eric: former president trump gearing up for a campaign event is going to happen late this afternoon for just outside of pittsburgh will be joint there

>> did you see her interview the other night? she said essentially keep it the way biden had it. that's great. he got out because of the way he kept it, she will keep it the same way. cox did say vice presidents are not traditionally that controversial provocative even offensive pro bowler posted a message she received from the campaigns and they are excited for his remarks in this rally and brown has three minutes to speak. trump has been relying on his supporters in the commonwealth. elon musk has been campaigning for him in eastern pennsylvania over the past couple of days but there's an argument among billionaires trump just posted on social media a criticism of market cuban parties campaigning for kamala harris. as a result of that cuban has called trumps her rhetoric lately an extra season of the

hard-hit by the very latest our people voting is a lot of enthusiasm out here back in 202065% of voters participated in early voting. you mentioned despite hurricane helene their top priority for so many is getting to the polls. take a listen. >> i think voting and politics was not even on my mind when the storm hit. now it is important that we recover and build back better. and make sure get the leaders in office that can help us do that north of western carolina. >> at 25 counties must severely hit 80 early voting locations originally planned before hurricane helene has now dropped

to 76. only four sites did have to close because of the flooding. as of yesterday at 780,000 voters already cast their ballots in north carolina. this has been all hands on deck effort to make sure voters can get up to the polls. multiple governor organizations are working to get internet service, portable restrooms, to the counties that need them for the early voting sites. all sites to have power but not all of them have water. that is put a little challenge and some people's weight. many election provisions have been made to make sure returning absentee ballots are easy for vvoting here in western north carolina. early last year election officials did pass a voter id law which required voters to show their id while voting. if you are hit by hurricane helene and do not have your id, voters can fill out an exception form here at the polls so very, very high priority in making sure everyone can get out and

vote. >> seems to be working in asheville. there's a growing urgency among both campaign to show up support in the critical blue wall states. coming up will have a closer look at those challenges with both vice president harris and former president trump with just 17 days before the election day. it could be up to the midwest. stay with us. hings that work better together. like your workplace benefits and retirement savings. voya provides tools that help you make the right investment and benefit choices. so you can reach today's financial goals and look forward to a more confident future. voya, well planned, well invested, well protected.

arthel: latest fox news polling that shows two thirds of americans are in favor of deporting illegal migrants. the new data comes just after several high profile arrests including one of the venezuelan migrants involved in the attack of two nypd officers in times square. cb cotton live right here in new york city with the very latest. >> hi arthel. nice to see you. darwin gomez is facing deportation back to his home country of venezuela after being taken into custody by ice agents earlier this week. he had been behind bars since about february being held without bail for his alleged role and the assault of nypd officers. he was sentenced this fall and released earlier this month from

rikers island correctional facility. ice was able to nab him shortly after. typically new york city sanctuary laws prevent city agencies from cooperating with immigration officials "new york post" reports this case was no different. the sink ice agents had to track the case through news reports and social media know when they would be able to pick him up. ice says u.s. border patrol first encountered gomez after he entered the country illegally in august 2023 near that u.s./mexico border in rio grande valley, texas. vp at the national border patrol council sounding off to fox news on the southern border. >> immigration creates a domino effect that causes all the other problems. it is simple by the american public just ne need to look at this. >> meanwhile police in upstate new york say officers apprehended two illegal migrants this week with ties to the violent venezuela gang.

officers say the pai parent was caught using a stolen credit card from a homicide victim in connecticut. >> cb cotton, thanks. >> early mail in voting in michigan is now underway so here in detroit early in person voting starts tomorrow. so get out and vote. you've got to get out and vote. >> we know this is going to be a tight race until the very end. we are the underdog. but make no mistake we will win. eric: at mid west to be the golden ticket to the white house vice president harris is working to shore up support in the so-called blue wall of states. those of wisconsin, michigan and pennsylvania. those states were key and president biden's victory in 2020. it's now growing concern from some democrats campaign is losing his grip on the state.

each are considered toss ups the latest fox news of power rankings. doug schoen democratic pollster former advisor to president bill clinton. join just a republican pollster welcome to you both. doug, good to see you. you are the democrat. what's happening on the ground what do you see any type of slippage? >> yes we are seeing slippage. it's ever so slight. if you look at real clear politics averages donald trump is ever so slightly within the margin of error i had in the so-called blue wall states. when i talk to my democratic sources both in and out of those three states i hear very real concern. the harris campaign hasn't dominated the media there she is frozen. she is not moving donald trump is the only candidate who is showing any movement. very slight but enough to put him in the lead. >> they are pouring resources into the states what is the

reason, do you believe the fact she is not potentially leaving? >> my take is because she does not really have a specific program. voters do not understand what they'll do for the economy, for the southern border. even crime. those in the top three issues under polling along with abortion. and on those three issues she is a trailing the former president and president biden has ratings underwater. there is deep skepticism about the vice president and president biden. >> what do you see? >> doug is absolute right the fundamentals of the election when you look at the issues. american polls just released a pennsylvania swing state survey this week. we found on immigration and on inflation we had with the lead

1.4% we have seen him up in that state. doug was pointing out the real clear politics for the first time for the average and wisconsin which is not much. this is what it comes down too. if posters have gotten it right in the last few years have dialed things in we are looking at extremely close election that's trending in trump's direction. however it really would get out the vote could erase those gains in each of those states and could make the difference in win the election. or if we are losing local propensity voters and working-class trump supporters it's possible were looking at what some call a narrow landslide were trump might be able to take most of the swing states and also be close

nationally on the popular vote. >> the harris campaign's and the democratic governors have been appealing moderate republicans let's listen to governor whitmer of michigan talk about that. got atta attacked t to people me fancied himself militant republicans. in some of you know i'm tacking about. [laughter] there are some people who supported him are not sure how they're going to vote. that's have got to show up. eric: she is referring to militant republicans, we knew about the reagan democrats. how about the bid by the harris campaign for the haley supporters it is not really working all that well.

we have seen in our polling ever so slight support among the haley voters the modern sheet has run a classic left-wing campaign her support from the so-called small but real moderate wing of the republican party and sit turnout rate he's going to get there voters out your into early voting which traditionally benefits the democrats. we are not going to know until election day where things stand. >> i hate to put you on the spot that any prediction? [laughter] it's a slight favorite for here'sthe underdog. dustin go ahead. i expected to be a pretty tight elec
