This study reviews the importance of creating a Colombian Military manual to control nuclear, biologic or chemical (NBC) risk and threats. It is believed that there is a relationship between the existence of an organized incident management unit in the Army and the possibility of controlling the use of NBC substances as potential weapons by irregular organizations. The first part of the document offers a brief history of the use of NBC substances within the frame of the internal armed conflict. The second part, briefly analyzes the infractions to International Humanitarian Rights resulting from such activities. Lastly, this study sheds light on some of the essential elements to consider during the construction process of a Colombian Military manual to control NBC risk and threats.
