Chapter 1: What updates are provided on Operation Epic Fury?
We're about to get an update on Operation Epic Fury. I'm Dave Anthony, Fox News. It's day 20, and War Secretary Pete Hegseth will brief us in a minute. After a late-night President Trump post on Truth Social warning the U.S. could blow up an entire natural gas field after Iran hit the Qatar side following an Israeli strike on Iran's part, and Fox's Lucas Tomlinson reports from Dubai...
Iran has also struck oil and gas fields here in the UAE, as well as Kuwait and Saudi Arabia. Iran fired ballistic missiles at Riyadh, while diplomats from neighboring Gulf countries, as well as ministers from Turkey, Lebanon, Jordan, Azerbaijan, were meeting.
The top diplomat here in the Emirates issuing a blistering statement, quote, this terrorist attack, which targeted the country's infrastructure and oil facilities, represents a direct threat to the security and stability of the region and its people, as well as to the global energy security. And oil prices are rising again.
Brent crude is up 6 percent, 114 bucks a barrel, while gas prices go up here again another four cents this morning. Iran's also been hitting Israel again. There were a number of cluster munitions fired toward this country. Seven separate barrages since midnight have triggered air raid sirens across Israel. In the West Bank, three Palestinian women were killed.
Chapter 2: How is Iran's military action affecting global energy security?
They were in a salon at the time when part of an Iranian ballistic missile slammed into this area. Another person was killed in central Israel. We know a foreign worker. Fox's Trey Yankston, Tel Aviv, an American is missing in Spain.
A University of Alabama student who went there on spring break, and there are reports... Police are suspecting foul play in James Gracie's disappearance Tuesday in Spain. The 20-year-old's father is now in the country working with the authorities.
A family spokesperson also confirming that police do have James' cell phone, which the family says was found when police happened to arrest the guy who actually stole it. Fox's Chandler Painter. It is hot in California and Arizona. It'll top 100 again today in Phoenix. Yesterday's 102 was the earliest triple-digit temperature ever. The prior record was March 26, 1988. America's listening to Fox.
This is Ainsley Earhart.

The Senate Homeland Security Committee meets again this morning and may vote to advance Senator Mark Wayne Mullen to the full Senate as the nominee to lead Homeland Security the day after an at-times contentious hearing. My experience with you has been consistent kindness.
Some Senate Democrats like John Fetterman showing more love to Mark Wayne Mullen Wednesday than the committee's chairman, Kentucky Senator Rand Paul. who went after his fellow Republican for once saying he understood why Paul's neighbor attacked him in 2017. Explain to the American public why they should trust a man with anger issues.
Mullen responding to Paul saying that he seems to fight with his own party more than he works with them, adding, I make mistakes just like anybody else. But mistakes, if you own them, you can learn from them and you can move ahead. And I'll make that commitment to you. Jeff Manasso, Fox News.
Homeland Security, the department remains mostly unfunded, so as some TSA agents don't show up while working without pay, there could be more long security lines at some airports today. Later this hour, the House Intelligence Committee will get its briefing on worldwide threats.
The day after the directors of the CIA, FBI, and National Intelligence addressed the Senate, there was drama behind closed doors at the House in the Jeffrey Epstein sex trafficking investigation. Attorney General Pam Bondi says she made it clear she will follow the law regarding her subpoena during a briefing on the Epstein files, but Democrats left.
They screamed C-SPAN wasn't there, one of them, and then they stormed out of the meeting. House Oversight Committee Ranking Member Congressman Robert Garcia alleging the briefing was staged. This has been completely set up in a way that's been irresponsible, and quite frankly, we believe a way for the Attorney General to get out of
her answering questions under oath and to the public, which we will not accept. Stressing he looks forward to asking questions when Bondi is under oath, so her remarks can be released to the public. Kristen Goodwin, Fox News. Bondi deposition is supposed to be next month on Wall Street. Stock futures are falling the day after a big sell-off sent the Dow to a new low for the year.
