Such humane. Very kindness.

Maybe I'm missing something. But when I was in the military... You carried ID. (Dog tags and the lke) To be found without identification could get you charged as a spy. (Which does not carry the same protections as being a soldier) maybe things have changed.

Saw this "news" for quite a while.. Sounds like a troll tbh.. How did they have the database of face -> id of the Russian fighters? if they already carry id with them then why adding the facial recognition? just to sound cool?..

A lot of things off about this low effort troll.. Trying to feel good.. People still don't realize we are talking about a major super power trying to play nice to avoid civilian casualties vs inhumane animals using citizens as human shields, the animals who won't think twice before shooting civilians just to blame it on Russia.. The animals who were torturing and filming captives while they pass out from pain.. Those are the animals our corrupt politicians are supporting.. Those are the animals because of whom we are supposed to suck up high fuel and food prices..

Good to see more and more people have figured it out.

That is cold blooded but justified.

So Ukraine has become the lowest lifeform, worse than Nazis.

Worse than holocaust deniers.

While it is war, sending mothers pictures of their dead sons is awful. But how can you say that it makes them worse than Nazis, when your very next statement implies that you know what the holocaust is?

Ukraine is full of nazis. They see Russians as subhumans.

Well that's without a doubt the most counterproductive tactic possible to "turn everyday Russians against the war"

Stupid idea. Ignoring how gruesome it is, it's more likely to make Russians hate Ukrainians more than it is to help end the war.

Strange that I'm not really seeing any of the atrocities committed by Russians on here. Can't imagine why that would be 🙄

Facial recognition is infamously incorrect.

Press X to doubt

Still nowhere as gracious or philanthropic as American businessmen, who, I have heard, provide jobs to poor immigrants.

it is a mistake to import poverty.

Reading between the lines: Ukraine somehow has access to extended bio-metric data of Russia's military.
