How are aliens affected by darkness in OpenXCom - Unrecognizable parent with charming newborn baby on black background

During night missions, the range in which aliens can be spotted depends on the light conditions of the tile they are standing on. Does the illumination around my soldiers also allow the aliens to spot them, making the night penalty effectively not applicable to them? What about other light sources like fire, EM flares or light sources which occur on the map? Should I avoid placing soldiers near them or do they have no effect on the ability of aliens to spot my soldiers?
