  • The Washington Post reports that Ukraine is sending photos of dead Russian soldiers to their families.

  • The officials hope that the images will make Russians against the war.

  • The corpses are being identified using facial recognition technology.

The Washington Post reported Friday that Ukraine is using facial recognition software to turn Russia's mothers against the war.

The faces of Russian soldiers who died on Ukraine soil are being identified with the help of free software donated by a US company.

Images of the dead Russian soldiers are sent to their families in Russia.

The hope is that Russians will be shocked by the reality of battlefield deaths.

Russia and Ukraine have used facial recognition in the war. Russia is using technology to arrest anti-war activists. The enemy and the dead are being identified by Ukraine.

Over 9000 facial recognition searches have been done on dead or captured Russian soldiers, according to The Post.

The volunteer hackers who work with the Ukraine government told The Post that Russian families have been sent images of dead soldiers.

The use of social media images by US law enforcement has been criticized. The database of 2 million images from Russian social media is being used as anti-war propaganda.

Some warned that the strategy could backfire.

Is it making Russians say: "Look at these lawless, cruel Ukrainians, doing this to our boys"?
