There are 4th and 5th degree burns? I thought the scale stopped at 3rd degree. Thermite burns at 4000. These thermite drone weapons sound horrible. Humans are getting steadily nastier to each other. āUnder international law, thermite is not banned for military combat, but its use on civilian targets is prohibited because of the horrible effects it can have on the human body. In a 2022 report on incendiary weapons, such as thermite, Human Rights Watch called them ānotorious for their horrific human cost,ā including inflicting fourth- or fifth-degree burns.ā https://www.cnn.com/2024/09/07/europe/ukraine-thermite-dragon-drones-intl-hnk-ml/index.html
