Ukraine has to do this because the Russians are infamous for abandoning their dead on the battlefield. The Ukrainians are also taking the time to bury fallen Russian soldiers.https://twitter.com/drewharwell/status/1514941871830835200 …

Yeah, while it might be something to document it, and while it seems good to try to turn Russian public opinion, in the hands of mere mortals this is not good. Not good at all.

The whole "they have to document it" is a canard. Russian soldiers have dog tags. Ukraine could easily just compile a list of those killed. Taking photos of the dead bodies is completely unnecessary aside from wanting to taunt the soldiers' families.

You said that they shouldn’t be taking photographs of them at all and I was responding to your argument. And what’s the textual support for this being a war crime? They’re not holding the soldiers as objects of public curiosity, they’re privately notifying families.

Here's a run down of the law. And sending photos to strangers (who may or may not be family) is a form of publishing as well as taunting. This is really sadistic stuff.https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2022/03/03/telegram-russian-war-dead-ukraine-pows/ …
