Clooney fiancée joins UN human rights probe in Gaza

George Clooney’s fiancee, Amal Alamuddin, has been chosen by the UN Human Rights Council to investigate allegations of violations of the rules of war in Gaza.

Beirut-born Alamuddin has been a legal adviser to the UN in a number of its previous investigations.

The London-based barrister, 36, will join Doudou Diene of Senegal and William Schabas of Canada to serve as members on the commission, the UN said.
