"White phosphorus bombs are incendiary weapons. That means that along with their destructive explosive power, they can spread fire. In this case, the fire is made from burning phosphorus, which burns at about 1,500 F. White phosphorus bombs can spread this fire over an area up to several hundred square yards."
