Mali
Practice Relating to Rule 74. Chemical Weapons
Under Mali’s Penal Code (2001), “using asphyxiating, toxic or assimilated gases and all analogous liquids, materials or devices” is a war crime in international armed conflicts.
In 1966, during a debate in the First Committee of the UN General Assembly, Mali supported the principle that international law prohibits the use of chemical weapons as a result of the 1925 Geneva Gas Protocol.
