The situation I had in my game was as follows:
I ordered my Air Queen to Cloud Trapeze and Wrath of the Skies the Ulm capital, on the same turn the enemy ordered his VQ, Vampire Count and some devils and vampires to fly from his capital and attack my army in another province.

In the following turn, my Air Queen defeated the PD and besieged the Ulm capital while the vampires flew away and attacked.

Since Magic battles come first, I thought that vampires' movement orders would be canceled as they were now besieged and unable to leave the castle, but that wasn't the case.
BTW, they didn't sneak away, but moved (there were non-sneaking troops in the army anyway)
