The morality here is clear. The Ukrainians were given clear orders to surrender, ample time to do it. The Wagner guy even tried to take their weapons, but they wouldn't give them. At any second during that engagement, they could have turned and fired. The kills were justified and completely legal acts of a soldier in war. Our inherent humanity cries out for these guys, of course. They were stunned and confused which is why they did nothing. The one guy looks like he'd already had an injury to his eye. It's well-known the Ukrainians are underfed, undersupplied, and being given little rest. Combat is exhausting. But if you're the other soldier, you just can't take the risk or they turn the gun on you and you're the war casualty and not them.
The best possible solution here is for the West to stop funding this nonsense, force Zelensky to the table and negotiate a peace. If Zelensky won't do it, he needs to be replaced with someone who will. And for the love of God, pick a guy who can wear a suit.
