I haven’t checked, but are Ukrainians taking hostages at this point? Like, if he laid down arms and surrendered, would Ukraine take him in? I know they were at one point and I also know is can be very dangerous to claim surrendered soldiers too, depending on the context.

They aren't 'hostages'. They are prisoners of war.

Edit: They are required by international law to take POWs if they surrender properly, so yes they take POWs
