The adoption of a new Convention on the marking of Explosives was further encouraged by a unanimously adopted United Nations Security Council Resolu-tion on 14 June 1989, which expressed concern ‘at the ease with which plastic and sheet explosives can be used in acts of terrorism with little risk of detection’ and urged ICAO to intensify its work aimed at preventing all acts of terrorism against international civil aviation, and in particular, its work on devising an internationalregimeforthemarkingofplasticorsheet explosives forthe purpose of detection.637
