“Shelling is conducted with all types of weapons that the Russians have at their disposal: guided bombs, multiple launch rocket systems, various types of 'Molniya' drones, FPV drones. The frontline is two kilometers from the center of Kup'yansk. Kivsharivka and Kup'yansk-Vuzlovyi are a bit further away, but they are already within the reach of mortars and FPV drones,” Besedin said.

“Not many people are currently evacuating, especially from the left bank of the Kup'yansk community, where the situation is critical. There have been three months without electricity, gas, water, social services, grocery stores, pharmacies, and hospitals. Over 900 people, mostly elderly, refuse to leave their homes despite inhumane conditions,” he added.
