One year ago today Hamas terrorists launched a brutal early morning attack on Israel murdering, raping and taking hostages from homes on the Gaza border. All across Israel vigils and somber ceremonies were being held to honor and remember those lost and those still being held captive. The war in Gaza rages on and now the conflict has expanded into Lebanon where Israel is trying to dismantle the Iran supported terror group Hezbollah. FOX’s Eben Brown speaks with Trey Yingst, chief foreign correspondent for FOX News Channel (FNC) and author of the book 'Black Saturday', his firsthand account of the October 7th terror attack by Hamas, who shares his experience in covering the conflict from day one and the latest in fighting in Gaza and Lebanon.

Energy prices are on the move. Volatility spikes as Americans face devastating hurricanes domestically and conflict escalates in the Middle East. Israel has promised to retaliate against Iran’s ballistic missile attack last week, and Wall Street is already pricing some of the fears of escalation into the market.

FOX Business correspondent Lydia Hu is joined by senior energy market analyst and FOX Business contributor Phil Flynn to explain how the Middle East’s building conflict and severe weather in the U.S. could mean a major energy price spike for consumers.

Today marks one year since the Hamas terror attacks on Israel that left over 1200 dead, and hundreds of others taken hostage. Throughout the 12 months since the attacks, Israel has worked to root out Hamas terrorists in Gaza and has moved into Lebanon to neutralize the Iranian proxy group Hezbollah. Domestically, President Biden is receiving criticism over his administration's handling of Hurricane Helene aid, with thousands of Americans in the Southeast currently without power and resources. Senate Minority Whip John Thune (R-SD) joins the Rundown to reflect on the one-year mark since the Hamas attacks, his efforts to get Republican Senate candidates elected, and react to the Biden administration's response to Hurricane Helene. With one year passing since the Hamas terror attacks on Israel, families of hostages take on that day are growing weary that their loved ones may never be returned home. One of those hostages is 20-year-old Edan Alexander, who was born in Israel but was raised in New Jersey. His parents are hoping for a ceasefire agreement that could bring their son home. Edan's father, Adi Alexander joined the Rundown from a rally in Central Park, New York, held by hostage family members, to discuss his son's story, his hopes for his son's return and what he feels Israel needs to do to bring all of the hostages home.

Americans, more than ever, are relying on government programs to get by, and a recent study shows how that reliance has spread to many more parts of the country over the decades. This past week, Wall Street Journal's editor and reporter Aaron Zitner joined host Chris Foster to delve into the study's findings and the significant political ramifications. He notes a striking trend: many counties that have grown more dependent on government safety nets tend to vote Republican and are pivotal in swing states that could swing the outcome of next month's election. Zitner discusses what economic, demographic, and policy changes led to this change. He also explains how former President Donald Trump was among the first Republicans to notice this trend and appeal to these voters. We often must cut interviews short during the week, but we thought you might like to hear the full interview. Today on Fox News Rundown Extra, we will share our entire interview with the WSJ’s Aaron Aitner and allow you to hear even more about America’s growing reliance on government money and what it can mean for our country's future.

FOX News Contributor and former White House Chief of Staff Karl Rove breaks down each campaign's strategy and reacts to the vice-presidential debate.
