This is a very powerful demonstration of a very ordinary looking weapon.

Phosphorous is devastating If one drop gets on your hand it’ll burn its way completely thru your hand. Talk about demoralizing the enemy. 

The Israeli Armed Forces filmed this in real time. What you'll see is a fully armored Syrian tank being hit by an Israeli laser-guided, steel-penetrating, phosphorous-filled "handheld" rocket. The rocket is small, very portable, and is a tightly controlled weapon. Each one is accounted for when they are checked out and back in. There must be no fewer than two soldiers present to verify the use. One must be a senior officer with a minimum of 10 years military service. 

This tank was headed for one of Israel's settlements. There were four more tanks one mile to the rear of this one. They turned around before getting to this area after learning what had happened to the lead tank. You can hear the ammunition going off after the initial strike. 

No Syrian tank crew member survived this event, and it did not make the news. It’s an everyday event for Israel's Armed Forces and they don’t permit the "embedding" of news reporters with their armed forces like we Americans do. This weapon and its tactical use is for their survival, not for "news" entertainment.
