more of Russian troops realize that they are nothing but expendable to Putin and just leave those tanks abandoned on the roadside.

Perhaps blur out the faces and insignias, no names, to protect him from his superiors and government. I would say don't make propaganda videos of POW's, that's against the rules, but this is Russian aggression and the rules seem to be out the window.

The treatment of the Russian prisoner soldiers, by their own leaders, and by the Ukrainian people should be documented.
I agree about maybe blocking his identity somehow, but hopefully, hell apply for asylum, and never go back to Russia.
