Strange story here- says that Ukraine is using face recognition tech to identify dead Russian soldiers and inform their relatives of what has happened to them.

Ukraine Starts Using Facial Recognition To Identify Dead Russians And Tell Their Relatives
Ukraine’s deputy prime minister says the tech will help provide transparency about how many Russian soldiers are dying in the war. Critics say the use of facial recognition in war zones is a disaster in the making.

Just had a thought that is kinda unrelated but the yanks had a squadron of B17s based in soviet Poltava, west of Kharkiv during the last years of the war. Interesting story if you can be bothered

Not sure it's that new or ground breaking, DNA and photos have been used for a while for this the dead, prisoners, and others. Plus their phones etc usually have their data sucked out of them as well at the same time.

The budget for the Russian armed forces is roughly the same as for the British ones.
Wonder what happens between setting the budget and purchasing the equipment.

To inform the enemy’s relatives though? That’s the interesting bit.

I don't understand what Putin plans to do with the place. He wants Ukraine to be Russian but it looks like his forces are trying to turn it into a wasteland.

He wants the city without the people.

This probably wasn't plan A but taking Ukrainian cities while they remain standing seems to be off the table, and backing down and fucking off home is not an option for a regime built on a myth of national exceptionalism and limitless strength. So this is what is left. If I can't have it nobody can. At least the rubble will make some nice hardcore for the new road to Sevastopol.

No infrastructure or anything too by the looks of it.

the historian in me says that he wants it whatever to satisfy the eternal need for mother russia to have security of its borders, even if it resembles an abandoned scottish new town from the 70s . but that's probably far too simple

Twitter thread by the same person, talking about the history of Roma people in Ukraine, and some detail of circumstances for those people now:
Artaxerxes
Look out, he's got a gnu!
It's very hard to stop fighting when you start if your motivation is grateful liberation of the populace and they keep resisting it.
Still, bet NATO is behind all this.

Yeah. He seems too egotistaical to back down. I agree with this:
