I always wonder when I see these kind of videos - is there anything these guys can do to save their skin? Is there a way to communicate surrender, or were they given the ultimate death sentence?

Anyhow, this bit of curiosity in itself is much more compassion than what this invasive species ever deserved

If they marked their vehicles with a red cross or equivalent they would be protected under the Geneva Conventions

That's not how it works. Active combatants cannot hide behind that.
