Rollei Bullet HD actioncam with dead batteries

Batteries are soldered in parallel on the board.
Two puffed up lipo cells.

I found a Rollei action camera in the trash. Seems fully functional except it won’t take a charge. The shell clicks open after removing the four visible screws at each side of the camera. The camera has two lipo flat-packs wired in parallel and soldered to the board. Only one of the cells has a protection circuit, the other’s wired in behind it. Both cells have swollen significantly.
