A magnetic field is produced by any charged particle in motion.
It is a fundamental law of nature (as expressed by the
electromagnetic force) that a magnetic field will form around any
moving charge. We usually think of moving electrons as creating a
magnetic field, and this is absolutely correct, but any moving
charge can create a magnetic field.
