Fox News journalist injured outside Kyiv

A Fox News journalist has been injured outside Kyiv, the network reported on Monday, writes The Guardian.

In a statement sent to its employees on Monday afternoon, Fox News said that its foreign affairs correspondent, Benjamin Hall, “was injured while newsgathering outside of Kyiv in Ukraine. We have a minimal level of details right now, but Ben is hospitalized and our teams on the ground are working to gather additional information as the situation quickly unfolds”.

The report came after the Facebook page of Ukraine’s prosecutor general, Irina Venediktova, announced on Monday that a British journalist had been seriously wounded in Ukraine and was in “intensive care under the supervision of doctors”.

“This man was not at a military facility, where according to Russian officials, they are constantly targeting. Not being at a military facility, he suffered serious injuries”, - the post added.

The information surrounding the case is being brought to Ukraine’s National Anti-Corruption Bureau where it “will be properly investigated”, according to the prosecutor.
