Marcus Moore is a London-based foreign correspondent for ABC News,
moving to the bureau in October 2022. Since then, he has covered the
Israel-Hamas war in Gaza, as well as the Israel-Hezbollah war in
Lebanon and the ongoing war in Ukraine.

In September 2024, he and his team were on the scene in southern
Beirut, Lebanon, as hand-held radios of suspected members of Hezbollah
exploded at a funeral he was attending. Moore also witnessed firsthand
the Israeli airstrikes that killed longtime Hezbollah leader Hassan
Nasrallah in Beirut. In addition, he has reported on the ground in
Israel on the war in Gaza and covered the catastrophic earthquake in
southern Turkey on Feb. 6, 2023, which killed more than 50,000 people.

Since joining ABC News in 2017 as a Dallas-based correspondent, Moore
has covered major global news events. He covered the Vatican,
including Pope Francis’ historic trip to Canada to apologize to the
Indigenous community for the church’s role in residential schools.
He broadcast from Port-au-Prince, Haiti, on efforts to rescue 14
American missionaries who were kidnapped and held for ransom by a
criminal gang. Just months prior, he was in Haiti again, covering the
assassination of then-President Jovenel Moïse.

In 2021, Moore filed reports from Germany’s Eifel region, where
historic floodwaters wiped away entire villages and claimed the lives
of more than 100 people. He has also filed reports on the migrant
crisis in Mexico and Guatemala. He covered pro-democracy protests in
Hong Kong and filed live reports from New Zealand after the
devastating White Island volcano eruption off the coast of Whakatane
in 2019. That same year, Moore broadcast live from the G7 Summit in

In 2019, he and his team were in The Bahamas’ Marsh Harbour as
Hurricane Dorian’s eye made a direct hit, reporting extensively on
the Category 5 hurricane that devastated the island.

In 2010, Moore covered the miraculous rescue of 33 trapped miners near
Copiapó, Chile, and traveled to Turkey to document how Syrian
refugees were adapting to life outside their country.

Stateside, Moore has covered some of the defining moments of our time,
including the protests in Minneapolis over the murder of George Floyd,
the Botham John police shooting in Dallas, and the deadly mass
shootings in Uvalde, El Paso, Santa Fe and Sutherland Springs, Texas.
Early in his career, he broadcast live from Ocean Springs,
Mississippi, as Hurricane Katrina made landfall in 2005.
