+###### Important
+
+**CloudFront Access Logging Limitation**
+
+CloudFront access logging is automatically disabled in the following regions due to lack of support for standard logging (legacy):
+
+  * Africa (Cape Town) - `af-south-1`
+
+  * Asia Pacific (Hong Kong) - `ap-east-1`
+
+  * Europe (Spain) - `eu-south-2`
+
+  * Middle East (Bahrain) - `me-south-1`
+
+
+
+
+If you deploy the solution in one of these regions, the CloudFront distribution will function normally but will not generate access logs. If access logging is required for your use case, you can manually configure CloudFront Standard Logging V2 after deployment. For more information, refer to the [CloudFront Standard Logging V2 documentation](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonCloudFront/latest/DeveloperGuide/standard-logging.html).
