The Bishop of St Albans asked a question on allegations that white phosphorus had been used on civilians in Tigray, Ethiopia during a discussion on the ongoing conflict in the region on 15th June 2021:
The Lord Bishop of St Albans: I wonder if the Minister would comment on whether Her Majesty’s Government have been able to validate allegations that white phosphorus was used against civilians in Tigray, despite the categorical denial of the Ethiopian Government.
Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon (Con, Foreign Office): The right reverend Prelate raises an important point. We are awaiting, and certainly support, the full investigation. Various UN agencies, including OCHA and the UNHCR, are working to establish the facts of that very incident.
