The use of white phosphorus shells for direct targeting of enemy positions is illegal under international law as the practice can amount to war crime and cause widespread fatalities.
Videos published on social media on Monday purportedly showed the regime firing white phosphorus shells over densely-populated regions in Gaza, a Palestinian territory located on the Mediterranean where some 2.3 million people live under constant Israeli siege.
The attacks are part of a massive onslaught launched by the Zionist regime in Gaza since Saturday when its settlements in the occupied Palestinian territories came under a series of unprecedented attacks by the Gaza-based Hamas resistance movement.
