Amnesty International confirmed that Israel used white phosphorus bombs in its bombing of the Gaza Strip, which was crowded with civilians.

The organization said, in a statement today, Sunday, that our Crisis Evidence Laboratory collected evidence documenting the use of white phosphorus shells by Israeli military units in their bombing of the Gaza Strip.

It added that verified videos and photos show M825 and M825A1 artillery shells, which are designated D528, which is the US Department of Defense Identification Code (DODIC) for white phosphorus-based shells.

For the ninth day in a row, the Israeli occupation army continues to target the Gaza Strip, which has been besieged since 2006, with intense air strikes that destroyed entire neighborhoods and left thousands of martyrs and wounded among Palestinian civilians.
