Z-war correspondents immediately made up a story about "mercenaries".

Telegram channel SHOT reported about "airstrikes" that the AFU allegedly carried out on its own "military and mercenaries" who were sheltering in the central hospital in Kupyansk.

"In the course of the AFU's unsuccessful offensive movements, some of the mercenaries whom the Ukrainian command had thrown into the thick of things in Kupyansk tried to escape in the hospital. The building was hit in a combined strike. It was almost completely destroyed after the arrivals. Dozens of AFU soldiers and mercenaries who were inside, tentatively, were killed," - stated in the message.

After that Z-warrior Romanov called SHOT propagandists "unprincipled lying scum". According to him, the hospital was sheltering surrounded Russian military personnel, ASTRA noted.

"The hospital was behind us. The enemy had really been dismantling it for the last week. Only the enemy was working on our guys. Who were just left there," he wrote.

Another Z-channel, "Pioneer of the Reserve," said that over the past week "there were massive airstrikes on neighboring buildings and directly on the building of the Central Regional Hospital," and promised to publish relevant videos. The day before, the channel posted photos of the Russian military surrounded in Kupyansk. "Yes, our guys are still surrounded, but held," wrote the Z-channel.
