White phosphorus is not a chemical weapon or an incendiary weapon. Under the 1980 Convention on Conventional Weapons white phosphorus is classified as a multi purpose weapon rather than an incendiary and therefore not banned as is commonly misreported. https://www.lawfaremedia.org/article/jus-bello-white-phosphorus-getting-law-correct https://disarmament.unoda.org/the-convention-on-certain-conventional-weapons/ https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2023/10/13/what-is-the-white-phosphorus-that-israel-is-accused-of-using-on-gaza

Original Tweet

Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1712915260842135711

Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
