GENEVA, Nov 5 (Reuters) - The United Nations human rights council on Friday agreed to a British-led resolution on Sudan condemning the military coup and appointing an expert to monitor alleged rights violations in its aftermath.

The 47-member council agreed to the resolution in an emergency session on Friday without a vote. The new expert is mandated to monitor the rights situation there and report back to the Geneva-based council at a session in mid-2022.
