The Most Dangerous Evacuations
Rescuing people from the frontline's most dangerous points
Volunteer team in action
January 2026, evacuation from Kovsharivka. One of the last runs there before every crossing was finally destroyed. Shelling was constant. Right before we entered the village's residential area, a guided bomb (KAB) hit a nine-story building - this is captured in the photo. At that moment we were driving through the forest and stopped right after the strike. Overall, the situation was tense. The evacuation was successful: 12 or 13 people were taken out that day. On every evacuation the car was full (I can't say the exact number of people).
2026Evacuation of civilians from the settlements of Kurylivka, Kupiansk-Vuzlovyi, Podoly, and Kovsharivka. March 2026. A destroyed railway bridge in the settlement of Osynove - this bridge was the link between Osynove and Kupiansk-Vuzlovyi. The evacuation was carried out by boat, with ice still on the river. 14 people were evacuated, if I'm not mistaken.
2026One of the evacuations in spring 2026. 10 people were evacuated from the settlements of Podoly, Kupiansk-Vuzlovyi, Kurylivka, and Sakhzavod - across the destroyed railway bridge in Osynove. After everyone was loaded into the car, one woman realized she'd left her bag with documents on the bridge. Active combat was underway, but we had to go back for that bag.
2026Spring 2026, evacuation from the left bank of the Kupiansk community. People were ferried across the Oskil River by boat. A loitering FPV drone sitting on the only route had mined the road. It had to be neutralized by cutting its fiber-optic cable. After that, we continued on.
2026April 2026, evacuation. Approaching the river, we found two magnetic mines on the road. Because of this the car couldn't get through, so the boat and the people had to be hauled across on foot. The magnetic mines were identified visually.
2026Evacuation in February 2026, on the outskirts of Kupiansk. We took out the last 7 people from the sector where the evacuation was happening at that moment. The people had animals with them: 7 cats and 8 dogs. No more than 4 dogs fit in the car - we had to partly go back to pick up the rest of the dogs and move them to a safe place.
2026April 2026, one of the most difficult evacuations: more than 15 people in the car and several animals. Evacuation from the left bank of the Kupiansk community. During an intermediate transit stop, people were found to have injuries and wounds they hadn't mentioned before. An ambulance crew was called to the transit point. The evacuation was completed successfully.
