Syrian Kurds accuse Turkey of using banned weapons against civilians

Specifically napalm and Willie Pete (white phosphorus).
[Rudaw] Kurdish military and politicians and health officials have accused Ottoman Turkish forces of using internationally outlawed weapons in its offensive in the northern Syrian town of Sari Kani (Ras al-Ain) and have asked for an international investigation.

"There are a lot of fears that prohibited weapons are being used in Sari Kani. Wounds we treat at the hospitals are not normal injuries at all," Dr. Manal Mohammed, head of the Rojava Health Board, told Rudaw on Wednesday night.

"Our health board is currently investigating to find out what type of weapon is being used against us. Like I said, wounds we treat are not normal at all," the doctor said.
