I think it's good to read the article, they explain a lot of it and how Israel is refusing to comply with its ban as a weapon.
Sorry, you were right, it doesn't explain too much in the article, but this from HRW explains it in much better details: https://www.hrw.org/news/2023/10/12/questions-and-answers-israels-use-white-phosphorus-gaza-and-lebanon
I caused confusion, it was my bad.
Read the article? Preposterous.
What's next? Reading up on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict before jumping to an unnuanced conclusion?
No thanks. I think we should cheerlead for who we consider the 'good guys' based on nothing more than tiktok videos and what anonymous people on twitter say.
Says the person who didn't even read the article thoroughly enough to catch OP's mistake before the edit. Everyone is always looking for a way to feel superior. 😂
Reasons that the use of white phosphorous is considered worse than conventional munitions listed in the article (which you also didn't read):
The HRW article goes into a bit more detail about how severe these serious injuries are, what happened during the 2008-2009 offensive that drew war crimes allegations, and Israel's current stance on the use of white phosphours.
You're welcome.
Preposterous? Didn't you read it? It says white phosphorus. Big difference! /s
All I know is that there was a little fighting before, and now there is a lot of fighting.
BAD! BAD FIGHTING!
