The treaty is the first instrument of international law to help mitigate the catastrophic humanitarian consequences of using and testing nuclear weapons, notably by requiring states to help victims of nuclear testing and use and clearing contaminated areas. We urge all states to collaboratively provide meaningful assistance to victims of nuclear weapons and take measures to remediate the contaminated environment. healing the wounds of the past is essential for building a peaceful future. Any use of nuclear weapons would be a catastrophic failure of humanity. in particular, no humanitarian response could ever address the suffering resulting from a nuclear detonation in or near a populated area. Humanitarian disasters are often the catalyst for the adoption of new laws to prevent further suffering, deaths and atrocities in war. yet, despite hiroshima nagasaki, there remains a legal gap today on the existence and use of nuclear weapons. Since these atomic bombs were dropped on hiroshima and nagasaki in 1945, the icrc has been calling for a ban on nuclear weapons to ensure that these dark events are never repeated.
