Benjamin Hall was badly injured while covering Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in March 2022, and two of his colleagues, Pierre Zakrzewski and Oleksandra Kuvshynova, were killed in the attack. He survived, spent a long recovery in medical care in the U.S., and later returned to live TV and reporting.

What happened

Hall was in a vehicle near Kyiv when it came under incoming fire during a Fox News assignment. The attack left him with life-altering injuries, including major leg injuries, vision loss in one eye, and hearing damage.

Recovery and return

After being evacuated, he was treated at Brooke Army Medical Center in Texas and gradually recovered with extensive medical care. He later described the experience as a long road back, and Fox News reported his return to live TV and even a later return to Ukraine for an interview with President Zelenskyy.

Current status

As of the latest reporting I found, Hall has continued working and writing about his recovery, rather than being permanently out of journalism. In short, he was seriously wounded in Ukraine, survived, recovered over time, and eventually came back to reporting.
