Amnesty International says Israeli forces wounded Lebanese civilians with white phosphorus

  • Israeli forces have been accused by Amnesty International of using illegal white phosphorus shells in attacks on Gaza and southern Lebanon, causing harm to civilians and potentially constituting a war crime.
  • Human rights advocates argue that the use of white phosphorus in populated areas is a violation of international law, as it can cause extensive damage to buildings and severe burns to individuals. Survivors are at risk of infections and organ or respiratory failure.
  • Despite previous claims that white phosphorus would not be used in populated areas, Amnesty International has documented recent instances of white phosphorus shelling in Lebanon and Gaza, causing wildfires and endangering civilians.
