Ukraine's Security Service, the SBU, is once again urging citizens not to film or share photos and videos of Russian strikes, according to Ukrinform.
The renewed appeal reflects ongoing concern among Ukrainian authorities that such footage, when circulated publicly, could provide useful information to Russian forces about the location and effectiveness of strikes.
Officials have repeatedly made similar appeals throughout the course of the conflict, emphasizing that sharing real-time imagery of attacks can inadvertently aid an adversary's targeting efforts. The SBU did not specify a particular recent incident that prompted this latest reminder.
