Original Note:
This is not a deployment of white phosphorus. This is a deployment of military illumination flares. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flare https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battlefield_illumination The video has clearly been sped up, the descent speed of a flare is much slower in order to provide illumination, like so: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5K8A6E-J5HQ
