The ruling on swallowing phlegm while fasting

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: Is swallowing phlegm one of the things that break the fast, and what is the throat?

Answer:
If one intentionally swallows phlegm that has reached his throat and does not spit it out, but rather intentionally swallows it, then it invalidates his fast. However, if it goes into his stomach without intention, there is no blame on him for that.
