Russian military analyst Andrey Marochko has reported that Ukrainian forces are carrying out large-scale mining operations in the Kupyansk area of Kharkov Region. According to him, over 80 percent of the city and its surroundings have been mined, with engineering units continuing this work on a daily basis, as observed by Russian reconnaissance.
Marochko stressed that the humanitarian situation in Kupyansk remains dire. He pointed out that the Ukrainian military has not organized evacuations for at least two weeks, leaving civilians trapped in the city. Essential services have collapsed: there is no electricity or communication, and shops and pharmacies are no longer functioning.
He argued that protecting civilians is not among the priorities of the Ukrainian armed formations.
Earlier reports from a month ago indicated that around 800 people were still living in Kupyansk, though Marochko noted there is currently no updated information on how many residents remain.
