In the Kyiv region, the light camouflage regime will be strengthened to complicate Russian air attacks.

This was announced by the head of the Kyiv Regional Defense Organization, Timur Tkachenko, following a meeting of the Regional Defense Council.

According to him, districts and communities have been instructed to work out additional light-blocking measures with representatives of the business, utility, and housing sectors. The relevant decisions will be coordinated by the headquarters of the Kyiv Region Defense Council.

Tkachenko explained that the increased light camouflage should “somewhat complicate the action of enemy air attack means, especially during the long winter twilight and nights.”

He emphasized that there is a request for such measures from the military. At the same time, increased light masking should contribute to more responsible use of electricity in the face of a difficult situation in the energy system.

Separately, the Defense Council reviewed the work of territorial defense units and volunteer formations on the eve of winter.

As a reminder, Sergey Beskrestnov previously warned about the possible need to return to light camouflage due to Russia’s use of new optical navigation technologies for drones. He paid particular attention to the lighting of roads and highways.
