Defenders in #Ukraine can protect civilians from effects of an attack: 1. Don’t locate military objectives & combatants amongst civilians. Resistance fighters should have identifiable insignia distinguishing them from civilians.
2. Mark protected areas clearly--schools, hospitals, religious sites, shelters. 3. Ensure sirens or other warning tools of incoming attacks continue to work effectively. 4. Mark areas where there are unexploded ordnance.
