'White Phosphorous' bombs: Kyiv accuses Moscow of using them again | Explainer | Oneindia News
Reports have claimed that yesterday Russia used deadly Phosphorus bombs in the fighting near Bakhmut.
Several reports claimed that the explosions in the war yesterday had released small, burning balls of white phosphorus that slowly fell to the ground… and those balls set fire to the vegetation on both sides of the road on a surface equivalent to the size of a football pitch.
This isn’t the first time that Russia has allegedly used white phosphorous munitions in the war in Ukraine.
Earlier in March last year, Ukraine had claimed that Moscow had used white phosphorus against civilians in his country.
Then again in May 2022, Russian forces had reportedly used this kind of weaponry in their efforts to capture the Azovstal steel plant in Mariupol.
In this video, we take a quick look at these lethal Phosphorus bombs.

The FSB has exposed a major espionage operation involving a Russian national who was selling top-secret military data to Ukraine. The suspect, a man in his mid-40s, was apprehended after confessing to leaking sensitive information about military technology and the coordinates of Russian military bases. The man had reportedly been working with Ukraine's Foreign Intelligence Service for six months in exchange for financial compensation. The arrest has raised alarms within Russia, with the FSB stressing that the betrayal puts Russian forces in Ukraine at heightened risk. If convicted, the suspect faces a minimum of 12 years in prison. The investigation is ongoing, with more details expected to emerge.

Russian President Vladimir Putin escalated the war with a revenge-driven drone assault on Ukraine, launching more than 100 drones on December 22, a day after Ukraine struck high-rise buildings in Kazan, Russia. The attack targeted multiple Ukrainian cities, including Kyiv, Kherson, Mykolayiv, and Zaporizhzhya, causing significant damage to businesses and apartment buildings. Ukrainian air defenses managed to intercept 52 of the 103 drones, preventing casualties, though the strikes intensified fears of further infrastructure destruction. This deadly retaliation comes after a devastating attack in Kazan, Russia, on December 21, where Ukrainian forces targeted the capital of Tatarstan, marking a notable escalation in the conflict.

Russian President Vladimir Putin has sharply criticized both Ukraine and its Western allies for their failure to address the ongoing crisis in Donbass, accusing Ukraine of betraying peace efforts. In a recent interview, Putin stated that Russia should have launched military action against Kiev much earlier, warning that any inaction would have been a "crime" against Russia's national interests. He pointed to the failure of the Minsk agreements, which were intended to provide special status to the Donetsk and Luhansk regions, but were never fully implemented by Ukraine.

In a decisive and powerful strike, Russian forces have targeted and destroyed a German-made Leopard tank, along with several other key military assets, in Ukraine’s Kharkiv region. Using kamikaze drones, the Russian military identified the Leopard tank through reconnaissance UAVs before launching a series of devastating drone attacks. The tank was seen engulfed in flames as it was struck multiple times. In addition to the Leopard tank, two more tanks, an M113 APC, and two pickup trucks were eliminated. Russian forces also neutralized five Soviet-made D30 howitzers and four U.S.-made M101 and M119 howitzers. This destruction occurred during a failed Ukrainian counter-attack, leading to significant losses for Kyiv in an ongoing battle for control in the region.

In a bold move, Russian politician Dmitry Kuznetsov proposes that exiled Syrian leader Bashar Assad contribute to the reconstruction of Mariupol, a city devastated by the ongoing war in Ukraine. This comes as part of a plan to potentially grant Assad Russian citizenship in recognition of his efforts. With Assad now seeking refuge in Russia after being overthrown, this proposal raises questions about his future role in Russia’s strategic goals and the broader rebuilding efforts in war-torn regions. Watch as we explore this surprising development and its implications for both Russia and Syria.
