The United Nations Human Rights Council (HRC) has appointed former International Criminal Court (ICC) prosecutor Fatou Bensouda to lead a team to investigate alleged violations during the conflict in Ethiopia.
The team will have two other international experts; Kenyan lawyer Kaari Betty Murungi and Steven Ratner of the United States.
They will serve on the newly-created International Commission of Human Rights Experts on Ethiopia.
The commission was handed a one-year renewable mandate to impartially investigate allegations of violations and abuses committed by all sides in the conflict, reports say.
