I'm trying to find something about this, but all I can find is articles saying Russia used white phosphorus. Where did you see this?

Maybe it was cluster bombs which are also against international law, but I swear I heard that today either on the news or read it somewhere. I'll keep looking [https://abcnews.go.com/US/wireStory/us-provide-cluster-munitions-ukraine-part-new-military-100836526]

Russia uses cluster bombs too though? Cluster bombs are bad because unexploded munitions are a lot like mines. The fighting is happening in Ukraine, not in Russia, and Ukraine is already littered with mines and unexploded munitions because of Russia's use of both from the start of the war.
