Similar to the infamous napalm munitions the US used in the war on Vietnam, white phosphorus melts the skin off human bones, resulting in an excruciatingly torturous death.
SANA reports that thus far three civilians have been killed while another five have been seriously injured.
Sputnik further reports,
"The news comes a day after a report that coalition airstrikes left nine civilians dead in the northeastern province Hasaka. Those killed included an Iraqi family of six that had escaped Daesh violence in Mosul, according to SANA. Citing sources, the agency added that the coalition had also launched airstrikes on the villages Hadaj, Huneidis and Hassan Ali near the Iraqi border, which has resulted in "huge material damage".The forensic and field images shown below, demonstrate what happens to human bodies after they are hit by white phosphorus
The coalitions airstrikes have resulted in death of hundreds of people in Syria. On August 4, the coalition admitted that "at least 624 civilians have been unintentionally killed by Coalition strikes since the start of Operation Inherent Resolve" against Daesh in Iraq and Syria in 2014″.
White phosphorus is highly noticeable when being dropped from war planes as it leaves a distinctive set of white vapour trails when dropped.
The US has previous used white phosphorus in Raqqa, Syria as well as in Mosul, Iraq.
The current Ukrainian regime in Kiev has also used the banned munitions on civilian populations.
Best of the Web: US proxy forces tried to capture 29 Russian troops in Syria... and instantly regretted it
Now this is something you won't see on NBC nightly news. The Russian military spokesman in this briefing, General Sergei Rudskoi, in a matter-of-fact deadpan, explains that 'US Secret Services',...The results?
"187 objects, about 850 TERRORISTS , 11 TANKS , four armoured vehicles, 46 PICKUPS , five mortars, 20 TRUCKS and 38 WEAPONS WAREHOUSES were destroyed in a 24-hours period by the Russian counterattack."
Now almost obviously, I imagine there were at least some innocents there, but the last thing that Russia or Syria could now do is acknowledge a single innocent civilian death because it would never stop reverberating on the Western PTB MSM war chant echo machine. Beyond that, any civilians left in Deir ez-Zor were, in reality, civilian shields and hostages of 'OUR' flunkie killers, so the fault of any killed - if any were - again falls back to the UL/US/Israel/NATO {(U-SKIN-ATO } (True) "Axis of Evil, Damned" (U-SKIN-ATO AXED)* there.
More specifically, most of 'our' proxies basically held their areas as giant compounds of hostages who would get killed when they tried to leave. (Think of the relief corridors attempted by Syria and Russia and supposedly agreed to by the US which would nonetheless instantly and consistently violate any cease fires to kill as many of those trying to escape through US promised 'safe routes' only to be slaughtered.) This institutionalized and U-SKIN-ATO AXED-orchestrated using of civilians as human shields (a specialty of Israel in the Occupied Territories), were and are just one more War Crime, among thousands.
Importantly, those who made it through were and remain afraid to speak of our terrorist atrocities by the risks to their families, friends and neighbors who had not been able to escape or who had been killed in doing so. This too plays a role in the slow exit by 'our' 'good' guys, so as to minimize American Awareness of the Truth on the Ground in Syria.
