Kupiansk may become the first major city captured by the Russian forces in the autumn. The mayor appointed by Ukraine, Beshtykin, made a speech urging the local residents to evacuate the city on foot. Beshtykin stated that this is the only way to leave the city, and only by walking out of the city will the Ukrainian authorities arrange rescue vehicles to pick them up.
In fact, the Ukrainian authorities had not organized the evacuation of the local civilians before. For the local civilians, walking out of the city is basically impossible, because both sides' troops are fighting in the city, and the Ukrainian military's FPV suicide drones will attack people wearing civilian clothes.
