ANKARA: Irene Montero from the Spanish left-wing party, Podemos, accused Israel on Thursday of using white phosphorus bombs against Lebanon. 'White phosphorus causes deadly burns that reach the bone,' she wrote on X. 'Israel is bombing Beirut with this banned munition.' Montero described Israeli officials as 'criminals, terrorists.' 'The European elites will have to answer for this unbearable complicity with the genocidal State of Israel,' she said. Israel launched attacks on the Gaza Strip and Lebanon, which have intensified since Sept. 23. Tel Aviv claims to be targeting only Hezbollah targets throughout Lebanon, but the strikes have killed more than 1,100 victims, according to the Lebanese Health Ministry. The aerial campaign was an escalation in the year-long cross-border warfare between Israel and Hezbollah since the start of Tel Aviv's brutal offensive on Gaza that has killed nearly 41,800 victims, mostly women and children, since a Hamas attack in early October last year. The international commun ity has warned that Israeli attacks in Lebanon could escalate the Gaza conflict into a wider regional war.??????? Source: Anadolu Agency
