The Fox News correspondent Benjamin Hall was injured on Monday in Ukraine while reporting outside of Kyiv and has been hospitalized, the network said.

The network said it had only sparse information about the nature of the journalist’s injuries. Mr. Hall is a longtime war correspondent who has covered conflicts in Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Syria, and other countries. He joined Fox News in 2015 and became a State Department correspondent for the network last year.

“We have a minimal level of details right now, but Ben is hospitalized and our teams on the ground are working to gather additional information as the situation quickly unfolds,” Suzanne Scott, the chief executive of Fox News Media, wrote in a memo to employees.

“The safety of our entire team of journalists in Ukraine and the surrounding regions is our top priority and of the utmost importance. This is a stark reminder for all journalists who are putting their lives on the line every day to deliver the news from a war zone.”

On Sunday, the American filmmaker and journalist Brent Renaud was shot and killed while reporting in a suburb of Kyiv. Mr. Renaud, 50, was killed in a suburb that had been targeted with intense shelling by Russian forces.
