Israel's Largest Hospital Treating Patients Underground Amid Missile Attacks

3/26/2026
Amidst the ongoing conflict with Iran entering its fourth week, the Sheba Medical Center, the largest hospital in Israel and the Middle East, is using an underground facility to ensure continuity of care, despite the threat of missile attacks. At the beginning of the U.S.-Israel conflict with Iran, the hospital relocated more than a thousand patients underground in less than 48 hours. The medical center continues to operate almost completely out of their underground facility as the threat of missile attacks continues. FOX’s Jonathan Savage speaks with Dr. Jordanna Koppel, a senior pediatrician at the Sheba Medical Center, who shares what emergency medical care looks like on the front lines of this conflict, and how it feels to be administering care even as bombs continue to drop.

A Bad Week For Social Media Giants

3/26/2026
For the first time, a jury has looked past Section 230 protections to hold Meta and Google liable for the "addictive" design of their platforms. Following a bellwether trial in Los Angeles, a 20-year-old woman was awarded millions in damages after jurors found the tech giants acted with "malice, oppression, or fraud." Former prosecutor and FOX News contributor Josh Ritter joins the Rundown to break down the internal "smoking gun" documents—where employees compared social media to drug pushing—and discusses what this means for the thousands of similar cases waiting in the wings. The U.S. justice system is bracing for an unprecedented legal battle as Nicolás Maduro faces federal charges in New York for allegedly leading a sprawling narcoterrorism conspiracy. Former state and federal prosecutor Jim Trusty joins to discuss the unique challenges of this international case, including the struggle to fund a private defense under federal sanctions, the legal hurdles of using classified evidence, and why the military-backed "Cartel of the Suns" makes a traditional trial or plea deal highly complex.
