Amnesty International confirms that Israeli army's uses white phosphorus in its attack on southern Lebanon
Pulbished on:
London, November 01, 2023 (LANA) - Amnesty International said that its new investigation proved that the Israeli army used white phosphorus in its attack on the town of Dhahira on October 16 in southern Lebanon in a way that did not distinguish between civilians and military personnel.
The organization stated that the attack resulted in the injury of at least nine civilians and caused damage to civilian sites and is therefore illegal and should be investigated as a war crime.
The organization called on the Israeli army to immediately stop using white phosphorus, especially in populated areas, and to adhere to its pledge to do so in 2013, despite its forgetfulness.
