There's a lot of things classified as war crimes going on.
Nothing is banned when there's no effective deterrents.
I went digging and found a bunch of sources indicating that they're not. This, for example. They're not really incendiary or chemical weapons since the primary purpose of their detonation is to produce a large blast wave, not to burn things.
Using them in ways that are prohibited for all weapons is of course also prohibited, such as indiscriminate use against civilians.
