“Turkey is using banned weapons containing phosphorus and napalm.” – RUDAW.net

This severely burnt child lies in hospital in Hasakah, Syria, October 16 2019.

THIS IS ON YOU @realDonaldTrump
“The United States is aware of the claims that Turkish proxies have used white phosphorus and the possible evidence that supports that claim, the senior U.S. administration official said.” – Foreign Policy
“‘Turkey will be held accountable by the international community for the crimes they commit against the Kurds,’ the official said.

A U.S. Defense Department spokesperson declined to comment.” – Foreign Policy
I was of two minds about posting this image.

It is horrifically graphic and upsetting for us, in our comfortable lives, to see. And I do apologise to those upset by it (I find it hard to look at also).

But given it was buried in a foreign publication I felt it was important.
Foreign Policy is a great publication but it’s not widely read. I don’t always get to it, and it’s also paywalled

As for Rudaw, I’ve never heard of it until today. But I’ve signed up.
