BEIRUT - Firefighters in Lebanon were battling wildfires late on Tuesday that Lebanese civil defence said had been sparked by Israeli shelling, with the flames visible for miles as darkness fell.
"We're facing phosphorous shelling, these react with oxygen, they fall causing lots of shrapnel," Mousawae said. Separately on Tuesday, human rights group Amnesty International accused the Israeli army of firing artillery shells containing white phosphorous in military operations along Lebanon's southern border between Oct. 10 and Oct. 16.
