hello Superstar and welcome to CNN 10
where I tell you the what letting you
decide what to think I'm KY wire and we
begin on the nation's capital where
house lawmakers are quickly moving ahead
on legislation that could possibly ban
the popular social media app Tik Tock
from the United States Tik Tock is used
by about 100 70 million Americans but
this measure is looking to prohibit Tik
Tok from us app stores unless the app is
no longer connected to bite dance its
parent company which is based in China
some lawmakers are concerned that Tik
Tock could possibly enable the Chinese
government to have too much information
about its users alleging that it's a
possible national security threat on the
other side Tik Tock denies these claims
and believes this legislation is an
attack on First Amendment rights this
proposed bill has bipartisan support and
is scheduled to be voted by the house
quickly if the bill eventually does make
its way to President Biden's desk the
White House says President Biden would
sign it now if this proposed bill is put
into law it would allow Tik Tock about
five months to cut ties with bite dance
if ties were not to be cut this measure
would prohibit Tik Tok to be downloaded
on App Stores in the US here's our Manu
Raju with more the house plowing ahead
and planning to take up legislation to
essentially ban Tik Tock if the Chinese
firm bite Dan does not sell it they're
trying to force that sale because of
concerns that the Chinese government is
too close to private information of
Americans they are alleging that the
Chinese government is interfering with
that information and could exploit it
something that bite dance has furiously
denied but nevertheless this has wide
bipartisan support approved by the house
Energy and Commerce Committee last week
50 to nothing that is something that is
rarely seen on Capitol Hill but that
bipartison support ultimately forcing
the the House Majority Leader to put
this bill on the floor very quickly
Steve sque said that he would take up
this measure of the Full House wood in
just a matter of days the that doesn't
mean though that Tik Tok isn't trying to
kill it in fact that's exactly what they
are trying to do the top Republican who
chairs the Energy and Commerce Committee
told me that she is getting flooded with
phone calls over people opposed to their
efforts yes uh we've been floodway calls
uh record amount of calls uh any member
of the Energy and Commerce Committee
that voted yesterday has been flooded
the co-sponsors have been flooded Tik
Tock actually put up a notice where they
blocked uh an individual to actually get
on Tik Tok unless you called your member
of Congress and told them you know not
to vote for this legislation but that's
just an example of how they can
manipulate data and influence Americans
for their agenda but what will happen in
the Senate that is a completely
different question altogether here the
Senate Senators have some of their own
ideas it could take some time to get
through but if it does become law
President Biden said he will sign
it next up in the Muslim calendar one of
the holiest most sacred months is the
ninth month or Ramadan several Muslim
countries announce Monday as the first
day of Ramadan the holy month of fasting
where Muslims may not consume food or
drinks from sunrise to sunset the exact
start date of Ramadan changes because
it's based on clerics seeing a crescent
or New Moon as the Islamic calendar
follows the lunar cycle there were hopes
of a possible ceasefire in the Gaza
Strip before the start of Ramadan but
both Hamas and Israel could not reach a
deal while the war goes on there's a
humanitarian crisis that continues to
Grapple the Gaza Strip the US is teaming
up with several other nations by
airdropping Aid into Gaza but Aid
agencies recommend that it would be much
more efficient if these supplies were
transported on the ground our chief
International correspondent Clarissa
Ward is here to give us the why from the
uh Health Ministry inside Gaza they are
now saying that
25 have died as a result of acute Mal
nutrition and dehydration CNN cannot
independently confirm that because
International journalists are not
allowed into Gaza uh to report on the
ground but it certainly gels with what
we have been hearing from groups like
the UN who have warned that hundreds of
thousands of Gins in the northern part
of The Enclave are one step away from
famine who have announced as you
mentioned that four out of five people
do not have or four out of five
households I should say specifically do
not have access any longer to clean
water and while these Aid
drops uh you know show a certain level
of intention and good will they
according to Aid organizations are not
terribly efficient and effective in
terms of a mechanism for actually
Distributing Aid we heard from one
humanitarian worker who said they're a
great photo op but they are terrible in
terms of trying to make sure that people
on the ground get the aid they
need 10 second trivia which of these
countries has the largest economy in
East Africa Tanzania Ethiopia Kenya or
Rwanda if you said Kenya Ken you put
your hands up the national treasury of
Kenya attributes rapid economic growth
and dominance in the region to factors
like public Investments policies
encouraging small holder agricultural
production and incentives for private
and often foreign industrial
investment let's head to Kenya now where
the East African country is dealing with
a rise in the rhinoceros population
overcrowding in sanctuaries has caused
problems such as rhinos attacking each
other and competing for food it's such a
concern that the Kenya Wildlife service
is transporting 21 rhinos to a new
location it takes nearly a dozen people
to get this 5-year-old black rhino up on
its feet as the tranquilizer wears off
with the tracker securely glued to her
horn she is ready to move 100 miles
away Kenya has an unus usual problem
Rhino populations here are actually
going up so safia and others at this
overcrowded Rhino sanctuary in central
Kenya are getting a new home decades ago
20,000 Eastern Black Rhinos like this
one ran free in Africa but in just under
20 years their numbers plummeted to
below 400 as poachers hunted them for
their precious horns now Kenyan rhinos
are making a comeback thanks to anti-
poaching efforts
but overcrowding in sanctuaries has
become a problem for the solitary animal
when you get to these numbers when they
exit the current capacity what happens
first is you get territorial fights so
you find um males killing each other
there's also the pressure on the on the
food availability for the individuals to
give them a little more roaming space 21
rhinos were taken to a brand new
sanctuary in lur Conservancy they are
the first rhinos to live on the land in
50
[Applause]
is for today's story getting a 10 out of
10 a video bombing bird doing his best
to break up a beat on broadcast TV CNN's
Genie Mo has more look at this reporters
are supposed to be able to wing it but
this was like something out of the
birds okay maybe not that extreme but
Australian reporter Ursula Hagar was
filing a report for 10 News first when
she got dive bombed over and over
involving a taxi fair on January the
30th last year in Twickenham an area
Southwest of London now this
Alle dive bomb nine times her own
station called it impeccable journalism
instead of doing
this Ursula did this just stood there
and
at least she didn't get used as a
Landing Strip by say a robin or a pet
parrot one just landed on the and Ursula
didn't get her earbud plucked like this
reporter in
Chile ironically he was reporting on a
rise in robberies they did manage to get
the earbud back from the parrot the way
Ursula handled the attack was a feather
in her cap one of the most ridiculous
moments of my life could have been worse
if she got pecked by a
[Music]
woodpecker talk about Foul Play and a
awkward situation but that reporter had
no egrets taking the burden in stride
delivering an impeccable report that was
like poultry in motion all right
