Hall began by honoring the memory of his fellow reporters. He paid special homage to Zakrzewski, 55, who traveled the world with him on behalf of Fox.
Hall then revealed the extent of his injuries, which included losing part of his leg, a foot and his vision in one eye.
Mediaite reports:
Fox News national security correspondent Jennifer Griffin explained to People how Hall was evacuated from Ukraine after he was wounded. The outlet reported that Pentagon Press Secretary John Kirby assisted, but had to wait until Hall was out of Ukraine.

Hall eventually made his way to Germany.
Since 2015, Hall and Zakrzewski have covered the Afghanistan, Iraq and Syria wars for Fox News. Shortly before his death, Zakrzewski received Fox's “Unsung Hero” employee award for evacuating Fox News contractors and their families from Afghanistan during the Biden administration's chaotic withdrawal.
