The 1907 Hague Convention IV and the Geneva Conventions prohibit harming enemies who have surrendered or are unarmed. Once a combatant has clearly expressed their intention to surrender, they are considered hors de combat and are protected from attack.

He was both unarmed and trying to surrender.

 

I learned a long time ago to stick a few band-aids (plasters if you live in the U.K.) in my wallet. They take virtually no space and get used surprisingly often, either for you or for someone else.
