\n\t\t\tThe resolution, passed unanimously on Thursday, gives UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres 60 days to present to the council details on the mandate of the investigative panel that will work with their Iraqi counterparts.<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\tThe investigators will\u00a0help Iraq preserve any evidence “that may amount to war crimes, crimes against humanity and genocide” committed by Daesh, according to the resolution.<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\tBack in March, human rights lawyer Amal Clooney urged the Iraqi government to seek UN assistance to prosecute Daesh elements.<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t“Why is it that nothing has been done? Mass graves lie unprotected and unexhumed. Witnesses are fleeing and not one ISIS (Daesh) militant has faced trial for international crimes anywhere in the world,” she said.<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\tIraqi Foreign Minister Ibrahim al-Jaafari sent a letter to the UN chief in August, saying that Baghdad was working on the Security Council resolution.<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\u201cThe crimes committed by the Daesh terrorist organization against civilians and destruction of infrastructure and archaeological sites in Iraq are crimes against humanity, which makes it important to bring its perpetrators from Daesh terrorist gangs to justice, in accordance (with) the Iraqi law,\u201d the letter read.<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\tDaesh unleashed a campaign of death and destruction in Iraq in 2014, seizing Mosul and declaring it as\u00a0its so-called \u201ccapital\u201d in the Middle Eastern state.<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\tIraqi army soldiers and allied fighters have been leading a major campaign to rid the country of the Takfiri terrorists.<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\tThe Iraqi forces fully liberated Mosul in July. They are now engaged in counter-terrorism operations elsewhere in the country.<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\tIraqi forces retake town in Anbar<\/span><\/p>\n

\n\t\t\tOn Thursday, Iraqi forces managed to liberate the town of Anah in the western Anbar Province.<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\tLieutenant General Abdul Amir Yarallah, deputy commander of the Joint Operations Command, said that the Iraqi flag was hoisted over buildings in Anah.<\/p>\n
