NYT: Israel used white phosphorus in Lebanon
The New York Times reported that the Israeli army used munitions believed to be white phosphorus in southern Lebanon, including the areas surrounding the city of Tyre and the towns of Qulay’ah, Khiam, and Yammouh, since the resumption of fighting with Hezbollah. Visual evidence captured these munitions over the city of Nabatieh during a military operation as part of Israel's attempt to take control of the Shkif Fortress. White phosphorus is a burning substance that can cause severe burns and injuries, and its use in populated areas may constitute a violation of the laws of war, with warnings about its impact on civilians and the environment.
