UN agreed to send war crime investigators to Yemen

The UN has agreed to send war crimes investigators to Yemen to
examine alleged violations committed by all parties to country's civil war.
The UN Human Rights Council adopted a resolution to set up a group of "eminent" experts.
It was a compromise between Western powers and a group of Arab states that included Saudi Arabia.
A Saudi-led coalition is backing Yemeni pro-government forces in a conflict with the rebel Houthi movement.
More than 8,530 people, 60% of them civilians, have been killed and 48,800 injured in air strikes and fighting on the ground since March 2015, according to the UN.
