  • Hello, everyone. I'm Coy Wire. This is CNN 10. It's Thursday, September 26. Happy Friday

  • Eve. I'm here to help you get your mind fueled up and get you caught up on the latest news from around the world in just 10 minutes time, so let's go.

  • We start today in Ukraine, where the U.S. is expected to send billions of dollars in aid to support the country's war against Russia. Currently, the Biden administration has nearly $6 billion worth of arms and equipment left to deliver there, but the authority expires next Monday. The plan is for the administration to commit the remainder of those funds to

  • Ukraine before they expire, buying the U.S. a bit more time to then announce specific aid packages and space out the delivery of supplies and equipment over several months.

  • Russia invaded Ukraine in 2022. Since then, it has seen more than two years of intense fighting and the destruction of much of Ukraine's infrastructure. Ukraine has made some offensive gains over the summer, largely thanks to U.S. funding and equipment, but Russia began counteroffenses to regain regions lost to Ukraine. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is calling on the U.S. and other countries to continue to support Ukraine with aid. He addressed the

  • U.N. General Assembly in New York City yesterday, where world leaders convened to discuss global issues.

  • We must uphold the U.N. charter and guarantee our right, Ukraine's right to territorial integrity and sovereignty, just as we do for any other nation. We need to withdraw the

  • Russian occupiers, which will bring an end to the hostilities in Ukraine, and we must hold those responsible for war crimes accountable.

  • President Zelensky is scheduled to meet with President Biden at the White House today to sell him on what he calls his plan for victory. That's likely to include a request for more weapons from the United States.

  • Next up, we told you last week about changes coming to teenagers' Instagram accounts. Well, they're here. Meta, the company that owns Instagram, started rolling out those safety updates this week. So what does the new teen Instagram look like? CNN's Claire Duffy will show us.

  • For the millions of teens under the age of 18 who use Instagram, the platform is going to start looking a little different. Meta, the company that owns Instagram, is rolling out a new teen accounts experience after years of criticism over the platform's safety risks for young people. They are, for example, going to make all teen accounts private by default.

  • So these settings were available before, but now if you're under the age of 18, you're getting put in them.

  • Exactly.

  • Whether you like it or not.

  • Exactly.

  • Teens who are 16 or 17 have the option to manually change the settings back themselves, but 13 to 15-year-olds need to set up parental supervision through the app and get their parents okay to make their Instagram settings less restrictive.

  • For parents, we know speaking to them, three of their top concerns are with teens' online safety, is who can contact them, the content that they're seeing, and time spent.

  • Okay, so this is a demo account for, you said, a 14-year-old. I think the biggest or like the most immediate thing they're going to notice, right, is the private account. So this is interesting. You go to settings and you see immediately teen safety settings.

  • Yes. And so here you see learn more. If you click on that, it takes you to a pop-up that will tell you how a teen account works so that when you're a teen using teen accounts, you're only able to contact people that you're mutually following or that you've already been in contact with. So with sleep mode, anyone in teen accounts is defaulted into sleep mode. This means from 10 p.m. until 7 a.m., a teen is not going to get notifications in that time frame. And then they are able to still use Instagram, but they're not going to get notifications kind of pulling them back into the app.

  • Got it. And again here, if I want to turn this off.

  • You're going to have to ask your parent.

  • I have to ask my parent because I'm 14.

  • With the daily limit, same thing. You're able to change this only if a parent gives you the permission to, but we've set this at 60 minutes.

  • How do you know if when I'm a teen, I request to add parental supervision? Is there a way for Instagram to know that it is actually a parent and not like an older friend or something like that?

  • While we don't verify who a parent is, we do have other safety technologies in place where we know if it's potentially a suspicious account. We don't allow teens to supervise themselves.

  • What happens if I'm a teenager and I sign up for an account and I just lie about my age?

  • For a long time now, we have required that when you sign up for Instagram, you have to input your age at that point. If you're under the age of 18 and we notice that you try to change your age above 18, we will put you through an ID check in order to verify and make sure that you are the age that you're stating.

  • 10-second trivia. Roughly how far away is the nearest black hole? 10,000 light years, 100 light years, or 50 light years?

  • If you said 1,000 light years away, you are correct. Scientists believe dormant black hole Gaia BH1 is the closest to Earth.

  • A new discovery is causing astronomers to rethink the structure of the universe. They recently uncovered a pair of ginormous black hole jets releasing from a supermassive black hole. Black holes have a reputation of being the garbage disposals of the universe, inhaling anything that comes near them, but some of those materials are ejected before they get drawn in, forming these powerful jets.

  • Scientists say the ones they just found are so enormous, our entire Milky Way galaxy would look like a tiny dot in those two giant glowing eruptions. They're actually the width of 140

  • Milky Way galaxies. The discovery has astronomers wondering if massive black hole jets hold the key to questions about the universe's evolution and structure.

  • Alright, octopuses have long been known to do their own thing, but new research is showing that they might not be as solitary as we once thought. These super-intelligent cephalopods have been found to seek the company of other fish, and can even pack a punch if their fish friends don't cooperate. Our McKenna Ewan is here to explain.

  • A new study found that typically solitary octopuses can actually work together with other fish to hunt. Researchers in Germany found that different species of fish share different leadership responsibilities within hunting groups, and that octopuses typically decide whether and when the group should attack its prey. Octopuses were even observed using their tentacles to punch on cooperative fish as punishment to get them to leave the group.

  • This footage helps researchers better understand why different groups of species stick together.

  • Today's story getting a 10 out of 10, drawing the change you wish to see. And in Crayon, if you want, a now 12-year-old in Utah didn't like the proposed design of a local playground, so she went to the drawing board, sketching out designs for a playground that she and her little sisters would love. Check out the bold steps she took to make the dream a reality. You might say this is a big day. It feels amazing. A day when a community comes out to see a finished project, the work of a now 12-year-old. It's crazy. A year ago,

  • Rosalie Olson started a journey that began from a simple question, a complaint really, after she saw the designs for this playground near her home. Rosalie's first response to that was, that'll be really hard for my sisters to play on, because it was a lot of rope climbers and things like that, which for a two to five-year-old is a lot trickier. Eric Howes is Clearfield

  • City's Community Services Director. He says Olson came with concerns and her own plan in Crayon. And that can be scary. I don't think most of us like to work with government agencies too much. It was already too late to change the local playground, but why not loop her in on another one? So Olson made more drawings, more specifications. They came together and made something. It's a really cool playground. And what it is today turned out a lot better than any kind of private gripe or complaint can do. It's just really cool. Something cool that a lot of people can enjoy, and a story she says she may share for a while down the road. It means a lot, and now I can, when I'm older, I can tell my boyfriends. And maybe tell them that when you fight City Hall, sometimes you win. She saw something she didn't like. And rather than just complaining and writing a nasty social media post, she said, I'm going to do something. And she did. For Crayon Out

  • Loud, that's awesome. It is time to show some love now. We're going to give a special shout out to Bartlett High School in Anchorage, Alaska. What up to all my Golden Bears and

  • Miss Corcoran. Thank you for making us part of your day. I learn something new with you every day. I really do. And I'm so grateful to spend this time with you. Let's do it again tomorrow, shall we? Fri-yay. I'll see you right here. I'm Coy Wire, and we are CNN 10.

Hello, everyone. I'm Coy Wire. This is CNN 10. It's Thursday, September 26. Happy Friday
