<p>There is a growing body of evidence that Daesh has committed appalling crimes
against minority communities in Iraq, including Yezidis, and we are working with our
international partners to ensure that those responsible are held to account. On 21
September 2017, the UN Security Council unanimously adopted the UK-drafted Daesh Accountability
Resolution 2379, co-sponsored by 46 Member States, including Iraq. The resolution
calls for the UN Secretary General to establish an Investigative Team to collect,
preserve and store evidence of Daesh crimes, beginning in Iraq. The team will be led
by a Special Adviser with a mandate to promote the need to bring Daesh to justice
across the globe.</p>
