Displaced Lebanese cannot return to southern Lebanon because of Israel's documented use of white phosphorus in the villages of Nabatieh, Tyre, Khiam, and Yohmor. With fresh evacuation orders and over 1 million people displaced, residents of southern Lebanon have nowhere to go.
Yes, because proving the use of white phosphorus in violation of the Geneva Convention is easier.
They’ve already proved it with soil samples elsewhere that Israel has attacked. Their crimes have been documented in every possible way and brought to the UN, for decades. Official UN bodies have condemned them. Israel and the US instead says you can’t trust the UN or Human Rights Watch or any other monitoring group.
Soil samples per se doesn’t indicate illegal use of white phosphorus (WP) since the Geneva Convention permits some uses of WP. Bring the evidence before the Security Council for discussion. Israel’s actions in Lebanon are part of the Iran deal.
That is true, but as a permanent member of the UNSC the US vetoes any measure that would hold Israel accountable. But yeah it would still useful to have the discussion and illustrate their crimes and to have the record of it.
