English.<br>Embedded in the YouTube playlist above.<br><br>\u2018Follow the things\u2019 trade justice activism tends to connect unknowing consumers to the exploited supply chain workers who make the things they buy. But not when it comes to the arms trade. Here, the direction of travel is reversed: it\u2019s this industry\u2019s ultimate \u2018consumers\u2019 \u2013 the people who are killed and maimed by these commodities \u2013 that activists are worried about, especially when their use can be considered a war crime. Since Hamas\u2019 October 7th 2023 attack on Israel and the Israeli government\u2019s military response (described by many, and denied by Israel, as a genocide), arms trade activists around the world have set out to make public the geographies of the arms trade supplying the Israel Defence Forces (IDF) and to disrupt this via non-violent direct action. They have also sought to hold arms manufacturers, shipping companies, Israeli and other goverments, and the IDF accountable for their actions under international law. But who are the people who make these weapons, where in the world? What do they know about the devastating impacts of their work? How do they feel about this? How do they rationalise it? Who\u2019s responsible for this death and destruction? Soon after Hamas\u2019 October 7th attack, news reports emerged that accused the IDF of using white phosphorus shells to bomb civilians in Gaza and Lebanon. These shells are designed to light up the sky, and\/or to provide a smokecreen, for ground troops to more safely move into an area. That\u2019s their permitted use. But if they\u2019re used to bomb people, that\u2019s a war crime. White phosphorus burns when it comes into contact with oxygen, and it keeps burning for weeks. It\u2019s fat soluble so, if it lands on people\u2019s skin, it burns and burns. Journalists and arms trade activists could identify where these white phosphorus shells were made from production codes they found on fragments of the shells found in burning ruins. An arsenal in the small town of Pine Bluff, Arkansas, USA, was the source. And not for the first time. In 2008-9, white phosphorus shells from the Pine Bluff Arsenal had been dropped on Palestinian civilians during the IDF\u2019s \u2018Operation Cast Lead\u2019. The Quatari news station Al Jazeera sent a reporter there and broadcast at least four news stories that followed the trail of white phosphorus munitions there from Gaza. Reporter Mike Kirsch talked to locals, showed them images of Palestinian people burned by munitions made in their town, asked them what they felt about this, asked their mayor what he felt about this. There was a detailed Amnesty International report that he could show them. Were people in this town at least partially responsible for this death and destruction? Was the Arsenal responsible? Was the US government responsible? The IDF? Hamas? Here\u2019s what we have been able to find.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Page reference: Ian Cook et al (2025) <em>Following the white phosphorus trail<\/em>. followthethings.com\/following-the-white-phosphorus-trail.shtml (last accessed &lt;insert date here&gt;)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Estimated reading time: 53 minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><strong>134 comments<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-28f84493 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:100%\">\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong>Descriptions<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-not-stacked-on-mobile has-small-font-size is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-28f84493 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:7.99%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized has-custom-border wp-duotone-dark-grayscale\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"868\" height=\"872\" src=\"https:\/\/follow-the-things.onyx-sites.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Screenshot-2024-08-08-at-17.49.04.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-99\" style=\"border-radius:100px;object-fit:cover;width:43px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/followthethings.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Screenshot-2024-08-08-at-17.49.04.png 868w, https:\/\/followthethings.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Screenshot-2024-08-08-at-17.49.04-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/followthethings.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Screenshot-2024-08-08-at-17.49.04-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/followthethings.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Screenshot-2024-08-08-at-17.49.04-768x772.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 868px) 100vw, 868px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:92.01%\">\n<p>One of the weapons Israel is alleged to have used in Gaza [during Operation Cast Lead &#8211; 27 December 2008 to 18 January 2009] is white phosphorus, a dangerous chemical that burns its victims.

[Daniel Reisner, Israeli Army&#8217;s former legal adviser:] If I talk about white phosphorus specifically, there are two different standard applications in armies for white phosphorus. You have white phosphorus shells which are used for marking and lighting which are actually strips of cloth which are dipped in white phosphorus and are used as lighting shells. And you have white phosphorus attack shells which are actually a military weapon. I have no idea which of these are claimed to have been used in Gaza. I know the IDF has the lighting shells. I don&#8217;t know if they were the ones used. [Journalist:] But beyond the actual weapon itself the, the method of use, um, using these weapons in densely populated areas where inevitably there are going to be lots of civilians who can be affected and were affected by these weapons. [Reisner:] First of all, white phosphorus is a legitimate weapon in warfare. In spite of the fact that it looks bad, I must tell you that there are a lot of weapons which do more harm which are also allowed. [Journalist:] But it&#8217;s not just a question of whether the weapon is allowed, but also the rules of engagement, the use of that weapon. [Reisner:] There are several questions. You have to ask, first of all, is the weapon legitimate? Secondly, what were you aiming at? If you were using a legitimate weapon, you must use it at a legitimate target. The third question is, when firing a lawful weapon at a lawful target, did you take enough care to minimize collateral damage to innocent civilians? Now the questions about white phosphorus apparently all fall within the third category. I assume that they were using a legitimate weapon attacking a legitimate target if they were using it in an attack mode. And the question was, did they take enough care when using this weapon to make sure that it didn&#8217;t cause collateral damage (Source: Al Jazeera English 2009e, np <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/165N8NSSEKA?feature=shared\">link<\/a>)?<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-not-stacked-on-mobile has-small-font-size is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-28f84493 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:7.99%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized has-custom-border wp-duotone-blue-orange\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"868\" height=\"872\" src=\"https:\/\/follow-the-things.onyx-sites.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Screenshot-2024-08-08-at-17.49.04.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-99\" style=\"border-radius:100px;object-fit:cover;width:43px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/followthethings.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Screenshot-2024-08-08-at-17.49.04.png 868w, https:\/\/followthethings.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Screenshot-2024-08-08-at-17.49.04-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/followthethings.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Screenshot-2024-08-08-at-17.49.04-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/followthethings.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Screenshot-2024-08-08-at-17.49.04-768x772.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 868px) 100vw, 868px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:92.01%\">\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>[Sabah, a Palestinian woman visiting a clinic with burns to her skin, through a translator:] I was burned from head to toe.

In other instances, internal tissue was also destroyed. Some of the wounded died a week to 10 days after being injured, even though they had not appeared to suffer extensive injuries. The doctors only later discovered that their liver and kidneys had been affected. But at this point, it was already too late to save many of the wounded. The precise number of those who suffered burn wounds and then died is still uncertain. Doctors take care to note that until the necessary laboratory work is done, they will be unable to determine with certainty if the burns were caused by the white phosphorus bombs the IDF dropped during its ground offensive in the Gaza Strip.

The documents were prepared by the office of the IDF chief medical officer, the Medical Field Operations HQ and Magen David Adom. A document bearing the signature of Dr. Zvi Feinberg, chief of medicine at Magen David Adom, and Rami Miller, a senior paramedic, writes that &#8216;white phosphorus contained in a bomb or a missile ignites when it comes into contact with oxygen &#8230; the phosphorus that comes into contact with skin causes serious and deep burns.&#8217; Another document, this one signed by Dr. Gil Hirschorn, who is also a colonel in the army and head of trauma in the office of the IDF&#8217;s chief medical officer, states: &#8216;During Operation Cast Lead, intelligence was received that Hamas was making use of an ordinance that contains phosphorus. &#8230; When the phosphorus comes in contact with living tissue it causes its damage by &#8216;eating&#8217; away at it. Characteristics of a phosphorus wound are: chemical burns accompanied by extreme pain, damage to tissue &#8230; the phosphorus may seep into the body and damage internal organs. In the long run, kidney failure and the spread of infection are characteristic &#8230; In conclusion: a wound by an ordinance containing explosive phosphorus is inherently dangerous and has the potential to cause serious damage to tissue.&#8217; A document entitled &#8216;Exposure to White Phosphorus,&#8217; prepared by Medical Field Operations HQ and sent from the Health Ministry notes that &#8216;most of the data on phosphorus wounds stems from animal testing and accidents. Exposure to white phosphorus is highly poisonous, according to many lab experiments. Burns covering a small area of the body, 12-15 percent in lab animals and less than 10 percent in humans, may be lethal as a result of its effects, mostly on the liver, heart and kidneys&#8217; (Source: Hass 2009, np <a href=\"https:\/\/web.archive.org\/web\/20090206080058\/http:\/\/www.haaretz.com\/hasen\/spages\/1061720.html\">link<\/a>).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-not-stacked-on-mobile has-small-font-size is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-28f84493 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:7.99%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized has-custom-border wp-duotone-midnight\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"868\" height=\"872\" src=\"https:\/\/follow-the-things.onyx-sites.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Screenshot-2024-08-08-at-17.49.04.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-99\" style=\"border-radius:100px;object-fit:cover;width:43px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/followthethings.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Screenshot-2024-08-08-at-17.49.04.png 868w, https:\/\/followthethings.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Screenshot-2024-08-08-at-17.49.04-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/followthethings.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Screenshot-2024-08-08-at-17.49.04-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/followthethings.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Screenshot-2024-08-08-at-17.49.04-768x772.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 868px) 100vw, 868px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:92.01%\">\n<p>Photographic evidence has emerged that proves that Israel has been using controversial white phosphorus shells during its offensive in Gaza, despite official denials by the Israel Defence Forces (Source: Evans &amp;

We spent the time on the ground doing the research, uh, speaking with multiple witnesses and visiting the site and it&#8217;s the ballistics evidence that&#8217;s very powerful for us. We found the white phosphorus shells. We found the canisters. We found the, uh, the wedges which were still burning in some places up to a week after. And we found them not just in open areas, which is a legal use, but in residential areas. They hit the Al-Quds hospital. Uh, they hit the UN School in Beit Lahia. They hit the UNWRA compound, the main UN headquarters, in the center of Gaza City. And what&#8217;s very interesting is that there were no Israeli forces on the ground at that time.

[Human Rights Watch&#8217;s Fred Abrahams:] Well, uh, I have a hard time taking the Israeli position on this seriously because, during the conflict, uh, they denied that white phosphorus was even being used. And then, uh, when faced with the facts, they retreated to say that all weapons they use are with, in compliance with international law. Now they claim that they are going to investigate. So they don&#8217;t have a good track record on on speaking openly about this issue. Um, you know, the evidence is overwhelming, um, and what&#8217;s very important to know is the military knew very well what white phosphorus can do. They&#8217;ve used it before in Lebanon and they had an alternative there are other smoke shells that do not have the same incendiary effect. So they could have used these less dangerous smoke munitions for the same military advantage without the same harm to civilians.

How is that going to happen? Because, from what I was able to tally, Human Rights Watch has issued at least 24 reports condemning Israeli action in the Occupied Territories and in Lebanon since 1991. With that in mind we haven&#8217;t seen any accountability or change have we? [Abrahams:] In my view, uh, the IDF, the Israeli military, has been infected by a culture of impunity and we understand it will be very difficult to break that culture. Uh, that&#8217;s why we want to see an international investigation. It should be from the United Nations. It should look at both sides &#8211; not just Israeli abuses but also by Hamas and other other groups &#8211; and, uh, they will, uh, hopefully lead us in the direction of some accountability. It&#8217;s extremely important, specifically now, because of the indictment against Sudanese president Al Bashir. We have the danger of a selective justice here where there&#8217;s so much attention and an indictment on that case but inaction and impunity, uh, for these serious violations, these war crimes, committed in Gaza.
