+ something needs to be said about phosphorus’s effect on agricultural lands, which is the case in Palestine and South Lebanon. Its effects last for years and years: phosphorus severely pollutes the ground and groundwater and weakens the soil for agricultural production. 1/
White phosphorus has caused severe 4th and 5th-degree burns to Palestinian victims. While I won't display actual images, a mere description cannot fully capture the severity. Instead, I'll provide a medical illustration to depict the extent of the damage.

I believe that there are no words left in the English language - or any language at all - that can really describe the cruelty of Isra*l. People, praying in what they resort to as a safe haven, only to be direct targets of airstrikes. This is the utmost level of evil.
An Israeli air strike blasted the area just outside the Latin Church in Gaza while the Christian community was praying: “Holy Mary, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death.”

You can tell how quickly The Telegraph changed its sources after the IATA disproved their allegations completely throwing out their credibility from the window. The updates weren’t spared of grammatical mistakes. Lol.
