Я уже когда-то говорил, что, как пилот дрона, обращаю много внимания на висящие провода в городе. Когда был в Москве, тоже смотрел наверх, и, кажется, проводов там прям намного меньше: я почти не встречал жутких переплетений даже в центре, да и редкий одинокий кабель через улицу в спальном районе Москвы куда менее частое зрелище, чем в Петербурге.
Зависит ли это от в среднем бОльшего расстояния между домами, из-за которого провода натягивать труднее? Или есть какое-то регулирование?
Вообще, существуют ли нормы в этом вопросе? Может ли мне кто-то помешать просто так взять и натянуть провод между домами в произвольном месте? Есть ли случаи, когда людей за это действительно привлекали?
Сейчас мне кажется, что в Петербурге этот вопрос полностью заброшен, и любой человек может творить с воздушным пространством между домами почти всё, что хочет, если только это не запрещённая вывеска. По крайней мере, за проводами вряд ли кто-то вообще следит. Особенно это заметно в центре: мало где над центральными улицами нет адской волосни.
Один из признаков того, что городским властям не наплевать на облик города — это как раз регулирование таких вопросов. Фотографию я сделал сегодня недалеко от Восстания.#life

#US shifts Al-Shabaab combat operations from #Djibouti to #Kenya?
The United States and Kenya have launched a $71 million initiative to upgrade the airfield at #Manda Bay, a facility situated directly adjacent to the #Somali border.
While the project focuses on infrastructure in Kenya, analysts view the move as part of a major strategic realignment by US Africa Command (#AFRICOM) to encircle Al-Shabaab threats originating from Somalia, while simultaneously reducing reliance on Djibouti.
Countering Threats from Somalia
The expansion involves extending the runway to 10,000 feet, allowing the base to support large cargo and military aircraft. This capability is designed to boost refueling options and rapid security responses for operations targeting militants in the Horn of Africa.
