White phosphorus used, group says

How this transcription was made
The scan is the headline, the line beneath it and the tops of two columns; the body is not legible enough on this scan to transcribe.
Context added by this archive
Israel is the subject and then held at two removes: accused, and then group says. Both are ordinary newspaper practice. The same day another paper ran the same finding with the fact in the subject position and the quotation marks moved onto the word that means it cannot be argued with.

The clipping belongs to the newspaper that printed it, or to the news agency that supplied the copy. It is reproduced here for research, criticism and commentary. A city here is where the newspaper was published, not where the story came from, and on most records it was taken from the masthead.
