Original Note:
This is not a White Phosphorus (WP) Round, this is a 155mm Smoke Canister Artillery Shell used for dispersal and/or screening methods, WP pellets are used to create smoke not used as ammunition which this tweet suggest. White Phosphorus creates a bright light. https://www.bulletpicker.com/projectile_-155mm-smoke_-wp_-2.html https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_phosphorus_munitions
