Ok so no prisoners?

Best thing to do in this situation is Ukraine must return all their captured foreign troops to their country of origin and send all Russian troops back via a catapult with explosives attached.

Can't let the Russians win by attrition.

You always want to take POWs to encourage future surrenders. An enemy that knows they can surrender and be treated as well, if not better, than their own military is much more likely to surrender than to risk their life.
