Distorted information was detected from Cambodian media, which used an image from an incident in Lebanon in 2023 and claimed it was an attack by Thailand using white phosphorus munitions. The Royal Thai Army confirmed the use of phosphorus rounds but insisted it did not violate international law, as they were only used against military targets. Experts warn that white phosphorus is a hazardous substance which, although not classified as a chemical weapon, can cause severe harm to humans and the environment.
