They’re inhuman, cruel and don’t do any difference between civils, soldiers or medics. And as it have been decided between countries (not all) that killing civilians or blocking medics access is a warcrime, chemical weapon are banned. Also war does not escape from social codes. It also put penalties to the use of those, which have a political, eventually economical, cost.
