The Israeli army has bombarded Mays Al-Jabal town in southern Lebanon with white phosphorus shells, Al Jazeera reports, citing Lebanon’s National News Agency.
White phosphorus bombs are internationally prohibited under the 1980 Geneva Convention, which explicitly forbids their use as incendiary weapons against both humans and the environment.
Elsewhere, an Israeli drone struck a house in the border town of Kawkaba causing damage but no injuries were reported, NNA said. Artillery shelling was also reported on the outskirts of al-Dahaira and Yarin towns.
