This scope footage from Avdiivka shows a Ukrainian sniper’s perspective as he engages a target inside a building. The video then cuts to presumably the same sniper, coving a Russian soldier as he surrenders. Viewer discretion is advised.

The sniper engages a Russian soldier inside a small building at 0:15. He goes down at approximately 0:28. Afterward, in the woodline, the sniper covers a surrendering machine gunner. The Russian relinquishes his weapon, which appears to be a machine gun with bipod, at 0:53. He then crawls into a prone position of surrender.
