Chinese Naval Academy-

In general, our military ethics education promotion strategy is more like a bottom-up research oriented instead of a top-down working strategy. That means we are going to build up the common consensus from a small group research scale to an across institutes research scale through (1) from the build up of the assessment tools to the promotion of the ethics course instead of developing an ethics course directly, (2) from the teaching of professional ethics concepts in science and engineering course to facilitate a stand along course, (3) from referring the prototype of the western military ethics course development to develop our own military ethics course, and (4) dividing the research topics of the military professional ethics into: leadership, engineering ethics, administrative ethics, educational ethics, and try to integrate them into a holistic military ethics course content.

Israel -

 Questions relating to morality in military conduct are so central in Israel that, for some experts, the IDF is the world’s “most moral armed force”. While it is difficult to evaluate the reality of this phenomenon in the field, this reputation is based on a deep, undeniable preoccupation with the ethical dimensions of the use of force, a preoccupation that can be considered an historical political choice by the Zionist leadership even before the establishment of the State.


Saudi Arabia -

The Islamic legal principles of international law were mainly based on Qur'an and the Sunnah of Muhammad, who gave various injunctions to his forces and adopted practices toward the conduct of war. The most important of these were summarized by Muhammad's successor and close companion, Abu Bakr, in the form of ten rules for the Muslim army:

Stop, O people, that I may give you ten rules for your guidance in the battlefield. Do not commit treachery or deviate from the right path. You must not mutilate dead bodies. Neither kill a child, nor a woman, nor an aged man. Bring no harm to the trees, nor burn them with fire, especially those which are fruitful. Slay not any of the enemy's flock, save for your food. You are likely to pass by people who have devoted their lives to monastic services; leave them alone
