new development center and the israel hamas warp it is really forces closing in on a major hospital in gaza city which they believe conceals a terrorist command post. power is out at the al-shifa hospital there is no fuel to run the generators. good evening i am jon scott and this is the fox report. also tonight we are learning american warplanes have carried out another pair of airstrikes on a facility in eastern syria. it's used by iranian proxies are finding about more about the fatal crash of the u.s. blackhawk helicopter in the mediterranean we now know by the special ops forces were killed. many military officials reiterate aircraft is on a training mission was not brought down by hostile fire. we have team coverage on the situation in israel. lucas tomlinson is standing fight with the white house response to growing attacks on american bases in the middle east. alex hogan is on the ground in northern israel as the fighting continues with hezbollah forces just over the border and lebanon. let's begin with alex what is the latest there tonight. >> major escalation and the north this has been the most active day since the start of the war what was already the deadliest conflict here at the border of israel 2006 as many as 21 people have been wounded today alone print that includes soldiers and civilians. those who have not left this area ever take a look at this footage but it is the aftermath of antitank missiles that struck earlier today. hezbollah has claimed responsibility for some these tax with hamas operating in 11 and also claiming responsibility for other strikes. rocket attack taken place in northern israel in a city near the coast. hezbollah this weakens that it is using new weapons and ammunition. this is the second time that we have seen rockets from lebanon hit this deep into the country for the idea of retaliating today by launching airstrikes on a military imilitary infrastrucn lebanon. looking at the south that gaza the military there is that it is taking 20 members of hamas into custody for questioning per the pressure is building here in israel from the families of the hostages calling on the government to find them. today the u.s. state department says the u.s. and qatar are holding more tax to secure the release of those hostages. meanwhile today for civilians in gaza the health system there is a crumbling. two of the largest hospital stop taking patients because of the overcrowding. the lack of fuel on the fighting outside of those facilities were the largest hospital al-shifa the health ministry there which is run by hamas says there are 1500 patients the same number of medical staff as many as 20000 people seeking shelter. a mosque today it said it is suspending hostage negotiations over the conditions at that hospital. throughout military release video of its forces bringing fuel they placed about 80 gallons of fuel at the entrance to the hospital but claim hamas blocked his delivery. israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu this weekend said israel plans to take control of the security in gaza for an indefinite amount of time. worth noting we have heard from u.s. secretary of state entity blinken saying the u.s. doesn't support israel's right to defend itself but it does not support israel controlling or occupying gaza. seasick interesting video of the soldiers carrying fuel cans into the hospital. the israelis say that if you give fuel to gaza hamas appropriates it and uses it for a military or terrorist purposes. the fact that it went to the hospital is interesting. >> it is. we do note these hospitals are working and r in really dire conditions with international organizations like w.h.o., the red crescent, doctors without borders, sounding the alarm these hospital simply can no longer function we are continually hearing hamas is taking this to fu fuel and not g it to the hospitals, the patients who need it desperately especially when we know how many residents are in there including patients who are extremely sick including babies who need to get out. israel said they will come in they will try to rescue some of those babies bringing them to safety but there's a lot of questions realistically of how that would work given it was about a week ago when israel did strike an ambulance outside of a hospital the idf did say that ambulance wasn't being used by hamas but there is a very real question of what should be done to help the patients in those hospitals tonight is claiming they did not receive that fuel that is despite of course the footage that we have the idf delivering it. interesting, alex hogan in the israel lebanon border. president biden spent his weekend in delaware as iran backed proxies attacked even more military bases in the middle east. his high-stakes meeting chinese president xi jinping later this week looms large. ihis live in wilmington, delawae with more for us. >> jon, we just learned it was a pair of u.s. air force fighter jets that carried out this aithoseairstrikes earlier todayn eastern syria targeting around the proxy forces. statement by defense secretary lloyd often said this was a training facility" unquote safe house it was destroyed by a pair of satellite guided bombs let's move now to the east and mediterranean the tragedy now officials say a blackhawk helicopter similar to what you see here flown by the u.s. army's elite 160 these special eighth operation regiment known as the night stalkers was the aircraft that crashed off the coast of cyprus killing all five aboard. the crash occurred while performing air to air refueling similar to what you see here it is file footage from the daytime can this complex flying the 160th does it normally is at night is when the knight stockers work and of course a much more dangerous mission even during training u.s. special operation forces are in the region as far as the buildup of u.s. forces for the 160th would be called upon to rescue or evacuate americans in the middle east if ordered the knight stockers flew the navy seal team six on a message to kill osama bin laden the delta force to kill the isis leader baghdadi in syria a few years ago. the white house releasing a statement earlier today from president biden's" jill and i mourn the loss of five american service members who died when their aircraft crashed in the mediterranean sea during a routine training mission for our service members for their lives on the line for our country every day. they literally take risks to keep the american people safe and secure but "fox news sunday" earlier shannon bream asked senator mark warner if i want has been deterred this was before the airstrikes earlier today this is how senator warner replied. >> by placing both the carrier group in the red sea we never normally announce that. bombing some of the facilities outside of iran is terribly important iran is very aware of the military presence. >> before the strikes to that u.s. force the middle east of an attack nearly 50 times in less than a month iran has proxy forces that continued trouncing loans targeting the 2500 american troops in iraq 900 and neighboring syria there in six attacks since wednesday after the pair of u.s. f-15 strike eagle's at the warehouse in eastern syria on wednesday used to store weapons the pentagon says were used to attack troops in the middle east. there's been to more airstrikes today and a safe house it is ironic being deterred and of course we will see how safe the house was with a pair of satellite guided bombs destroyed it. give later this week president biden meeting his chinese counterpart xi jinping in san francisco on wednesday. >> the blackhawk crash really reminds us all there is no such thing as a routine training mission in the u.s. military. >> that is right. some those elite pilots in the world both pilots have had over 4000 hours they floats of the most dangerous high-stakes missions in the world from osama bin laden into pakistan and also into northwest syria a few years ago during the trump administration when it baghdadi the isis leader was killed by the delta force. users of the world the best pilots. they train like they fight so they are doing very dangerous evolution just like they would in combat or if these forces if they have to pull any americans out with the riots outside of beirut. if the americans are in the middle east have to be evacuate you to send in the knight stockers. jon: i have a na nephew who serd with the knight stockers. lucas tomlinson with the president and delaware thank you. as lucas mentioned a high-stakes meeting set for 117 president biden 90s president xi jinping. the summit is happening in san francisco a city that has decided to clean up its act as the big day approaches. christina coleman has details on the cleanup. >> hi jon some homeless encampments san francisco residents affected dodge for years to get rid of the trash, stents, fecal matters and fears of getting attacker getting cleared out parts of the city's filthy areas are getting a glam job since world leaders will be in town including president joe biden chinese president xi jinping. >> when the genocidal commonest dictator comes to town the idf equity suddenly vantage the streets get cleaned out. that is very weird what message does that sound? california politicians like gavin newsom sam cisco is an embarrassment they don't care about the residence just about impressing xi jinping. wasn't sad it would be funny. >> governor gavin newsom admitted the city was cleaning up ahead of the asia-pacific economic cooperation conference. twenty-one world leaders in addition to more than 20000 visitors are expected to be in town. >> it all folks say they are just cleaning up this place because all this fancy leaders are coming into town. that is true because it is true. but it is also true for months and months and months we have been having different conversations and we have rates the bar of expectation between the city, the county and the state. >> we will see how long things stay clean. critics question whether this massive cleanup job is just a band-aid for a problem that is a plague the city for decades. >> for years at san francisco residents have had to put up with rampant homelessness, open air drug use, assaults, and feces lined the streets all in the name of the twisted notion of equity. quest california has spent billions of dollars over the years to try to reduce homelessness but it is still a huge huge problem. this democrat run state. >> the good people of san francisco do not deserve a cleanup but a communist leader and a few other leaders they get it, right? at least it will be clean for a little while at least before the holidays a silver lining progress will see how long it lasts. christina coleman thanks. for more on the ongoing war between israel and hamas terrorists let's bring in retired navy rear admiral jon palmer author from bluegrass to bluewater lessons in farm and leadership. admiral thanks very much for being here. we were just talking about china and this upcoming meeting in san francisco. china has its fingers in what is going on in israel and gaza right now, doesn't it? >> they do and they have. thanks for having me on. i will tell you they are involved in the middle east predates the belt and rode a strategy they've been doing for 10 years. the fact of the matter is china's been involved in the middle east going away back it's involved with palestinians building relationships and subsequently they built a lot of good relationships with many arab nations. point of fact they now do a lot of economic business with israel over a billion dollars a year. a quarter of their oil imported oil comes from the middle east so they have a vested interest in this conflict not expanding. but they also have a powerful interest in bolstering their reputation and may be diminishing hours. this is a situation well defined strategy and sharp diplomacy is key and critical to leading our way through this problem. in fighting peace in the region. >> we don't see them fermenting more trouble they want to keep a lid on it but they also want to burnish the reputation. >> that nicely i look at it. they have too much at stake in the region right now. they would surely take an opportunity to sideswipe up if they could. jon: israel is the one that was attacked first on october 7 that horrific terrorist attack was hamas swarmed across the border. and yet israel is taking so much criticism now from mobs and protesters in the street in the united states and elsewhere. and even from leaders in other countries and some leaders in this country, why? >> i will tell you first, we have to keep in mind some of the factions involved in the backlash believe our ally israel has no right to exist as a state. that should temper our view of the backlash from my observation i think israel has done a credible job taking measures to get the word out in mitigate harm. this is tough sledding. this is urban warfare and unfortunately civilian tragedies are a consequence that is where the hostages are and that is where hamas is operating out for them. i do not see israel israel as ma choice. >> the united states is not only supporting israel but supporting the government of ukraine. can we continue to do that? do we have enough material to keep supplying both? >> let's assume congress and the president are intent on supporting israel and ukraine i believe they are and i believe we should. but that being said the first order of business is getting our budget back together pardon the pun getting it signed and pass this is hamstringing us. our timing stinks it's a predictable bad timing. dr is an unfortunate fall classic just like the world series and halloween and the past 47 years we have had a cr in all but three years. budget impasse is a systemic process failure. we have to get our act together. in the short term to put ourselves in support us in anyone we care to but in the long term to have consistent budget so we can rely upon them across all agencies. >> makes it tough for the military to plan i know. retired navy rear admiral jon palmer it looks like a good book out to check it out thank you. >> thanks jon. jon: house speaker mike johnson has proposed a laddered stopgap spending bill to avoid a government shutdown this friday night at midnight. it would extend government spending for some agencies until the 19th of january put others until february 2. it does not include christmas cuts or additional funding for israel or ukraine democrats say the division is too deep to get it to pass. the problem within the republican caucus as they are caught in a double bind in two directions. if they go to try to find each appropriation bill separately the maga right start pasting all this extreme white white graffiti anti- lgbtq stuff there is anti- de i stop all of that and then there's about a dozen republicans who cannot vote for that because they are inviting districts. >> that's criticism from democratic perspective meanwhile the white house calls the pan quote a recipe for more republican chaos and more shutdowns. period house republicans seem to stop wasting time on their own political divisions, do their jobs and work in a bipartisan way to prevent a shutdown. i had on the fox report american flags torn down during a rowdy anti- israel protests in new york city friday. and tonight police are revealing new details about some of those involved. plus. >> he students believe that if you are a conservative you are hateful, support oppression and only want to benefit straight white men. >> iowa

american flags in the middle of a massive pro- palestinian raleigh. db cotton live in our new york studios with the latest. >> it was a 17-year-old captured ripping down those american flags from the top of the city light pole during friday evenings fled manhattan for gaza rally. our digital team also captured and mowed the team is taken into custody. the crowd chanting to let him go as officers carried the teen away. police telling us a juvenile report was filed for reckless endangerment. we saw other vandalism during this rally you can see here red paint splattered on the "new york times" meant to symbolize the blood. many protesters are calling for the u.s. to end its aid to israel as the israeli military pushes further into gaza city and a response to the surprise hamas attack that killed more than 1000 israelis. during friday's rally here in the city our team saw someone burning when israeli flag before tossing it to the ground and stomping on it. more pro- palestinian raleigh's unfolding across the country this weekend from florida to los angeles. many of these demonstrations people accuse israel being a settler in that region fox news contributor douglas murray says that belief is influencing protesters overseas. >> was is also a second smaller group in these crowds in britain, and berlin as in america to group far left who basically uses strange imposition of american recent interpretation of american history put onto the middle east which is why you hear people talk about colonialism and first peoples and much more it is a real demonstration of incredible ignorance. >> a total of six people were arrested during friday's rally here in new york city. in addition to the 17-year-old man was arrested and charged with assaulting a police officer, firefighter and emt. jon: tb cotton thanks. >> i was a docks in a group track of over 800 students and was falsely labeled as a nazi, a token, a white supremacist and a bigot. some individuals even
