The first prisoners of the regular troops, who were taken by the army to stabilize the situation in the KuPR.
Several hours passed between their arrival and capture
Sponsors of the party of the 225th OSHB.
If you call them prisoners of war, and accept them as such this might be a breach of the Geneva convention if they are identifiable. Then again it might not be regular Ukrainian army taking these pictures, but that opened up a whole new set of questions and possible breaches.
I wholeheartedly support Ukraina in their fight against Russia, but still thing that Ukraina should adhere to the Geneva convention.
The "no parading prisoners" clause doesn't really apply to these situations. Or, well, at least it's debatable.
The provision was added to disallow what had been common in WWI and WWII, and that is parading prisoners through streets while crowds cheered on. Photography existed back then and the convention very much does not say "you can't have pictures in newspapers". Should there be some privacy considerations? I'd say yes, but we also shouldn't overdo it. After all filming soldiers while they're fighting is legal, why would everything suddenly change completely once they're captured?
