August 5th, 1963 Three of the four nuclear powers sign a limited treaty that bans most, but not all, nuclear weapons testing. The 1963 treaty only banned "Atmospheric" tests (in the air, space, and underwater) not "most". Testing just moved underground and continued at about the same pace, maybe even faster for a while.
I think the use of nuclear weapons should be banned. They are to powerful and to many of them are out there. There are enough known nukes total to kill more than 5 times the actual amount of people in the world.
If the nation which is using the banned weapons has signed the Convention, then yes its against the commitment that nation made when it signed the Convention for that nation to use banned weapons, even against a foe who has not.

No, but Japan banned them within their own territory themselves.

Prohibits nuclear weapon test explosions and any other nuclear explosions in three environments: in the atmosphere, in outer space and underwater, but does not prohibit underground nuclear explosions
Nuclear testing above ground was eventually banned due to the environmental and health risks it posed, such as radioactive fallout and damage to ecosystems. The testing also raised concerns about escalating the arms race and increasing the threat of nuclear war. This led to international agreements, such as the Partial Nuclear Test Ban Treaty, to halt above-ground nuclear testing.
That is called the Partial Test Ban Treaty. It was signed in 1963 and banned the testing of nuclear weapons in the atmosphere, outer space, and underwater.
No, several countries have nuclear weapons and several others are trying to obtain them.
