Unlike the Army, they're allowed to use chemical weapons.Well, not that the Israeli military lets the Geneva Conventions get in the way of their offensives.

Geneva Suggestion.

That's bog-standard, tear gas counts as a chemical weapon, so does water laced with similar stuff.

The reason it's forbidden for militaries is because the danger of mistaking it for something worse and therefore escalation is way too high.
