Ukraine is, as far as I know, following the rules pretty closely. I have never seen any evidence of Ukraine breaking the Geneva Conventions, and plenty of them doing great kindness to e.g. captured Russians. One exception: they videotape POWs for propaganda purposes, which I think is a no-no.
About Israel, I will not judge them quickly. There is far too much misinformation going around for us to make quick judgements.
About the undressing: there are few practical alternatives to having Hamas captives strip. These people INVENTED the modern suicide bomber. The few alternatives I can think of are just as unpalatable to Muslims, like having bomb dogs walk through unattended and sniff them. Or, simply taking no captives. Which is what US Marines did when they discovered some captured Japanese would detonate grenades as soon as Marines came near.
You have to take into account that soldiers, like anyone else, will game the system. If the danger to themselves, either real or
perceived, of treating captives as they should be treated becomes too great, there will no longer be any captives.
At least they let the prisoners keep their underwear!
