Despite Russia apparently bending over backwards to give them an out. Remember when Russia was going to flood the plant? Or when Russia was going to use nerve gas?
They'd be trialed for war crimes, possibly executed. I guess that explains the pointless resistance. Of course the death of hundreds of their soldiers is the price they are willing to pay.
Russia has death penalty, there's just a moratorium on it. Politicians were floating starting executions again ever since we've been kicked from European Human Rights Court in February.
The citizens of Mariupol were terrorized by nazis for years and lots of survivors will gladly testify, legal details I don't know - the territory will become independent entity in some kind of union/federation with Russia and maybe Belarus+some other countries, thus I believe it's laws are yet to be written or adopted formally!?
As I said I don't really know law, but they won't just let nazis go away, Russians are very serious with that matter.
it should also be noted that they aren't trying very hard by for example trying to get their husbands to surrender

It's a shame they didn't flood it. The thought of wet Nazis being forced to go outside and surrender is hilarious.
no because they've got the civilian population in there with them as human shields

Russia doesn't have the death penalty. Yet.

I stand corrected
Yep but they didn't commit crimes in Russia.
How do those trials work though? How are you supposed to try enemy combatants for war crimes committed on territory you don't claim jurisdiction over?
