In a precautionary measure, South Korean officials advised residents to evacuate Osan Air Base following reports of a potential white phosphorus leak. The US military promptly investigated and concluded that there was no trace of the hazardous material. Subsequent analysis identified the residue as harmless corrosion from environmental factors. The evacuation notice was rescinded after successful decontamination efforts, with no injuries reported at the site.
