Original Note:
That isn't White Phosphorus as it creates alot white smoke and is typically not used for illumination. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_phosphorus_munitions The use of air-dropped incendiary weapons against military objectives within a concentration of civilians is simply prohibited. White Phosphorus isn't singled out per law. https://www.icrc.org/en/doc/resources/documents/interview/weapons-interview-170109.htm
