Putin uses the most brutal weapon in his arsenal in Ukraine, this is how white phosphorus balls ignited vegetation on both sides of the road in an area the size of a football field

Foreign media reports that Russian President Vladimir Putin is using cruel weapons in Ukraine. Two rockets were recently fired five minutes apart in an uninhabited area near the town of Chasiv Yar in eastern Ukraine. Witnesses heard the sounds of shells and saw an explosion caused by the ammunition, which released small balls of burning white phosphorus. The balls ignited the vegetation on both sides of the road in an area the size of a football field. Journalists claim that the nearest houses are about 200 meters away from the burnt area. According to the Geneva Convention, weapons containing white phosphorus are not allowed to be used against civilians, but can be used against military targets. Journalists could not assess whether the target was a position held by Ukrainian forces, although a green truck with a white cross, the symbol of the Ukrainian army, was parked near the burned area. Ukraine has already accused Russia of using white phosphorus weapons, but Moscow has categorically denied this. We remember that a few days ago we saw something similar in the recordings from Vuhledar that were distributed on social networks. The Ukrainian soldier who recorded the video was convinced it was white phosphorus, but some experts believe it was actually thermite. Thermite, a mixture of metal powder and metal oxide, is used to make incendiary bombs. It burns at temperatures higher than 2400 °C and if it comes into contact with human flesh, it can melt it to the bone.
