Arab League calls urgent meet on Syria monitors
The Arab League on Tuesday called for an emergency meeting to discuss whether to withdraw the group’s monitors from Syria, where security forces are still killing protesters despite the observers’ presence, an Arab official said.
The meeting will take place on Saturday in Cairo, where the Arab League is based. The Arab League’s deputy secretary-general, Ahmed bin Heli, said the meeting will look into the first report by the head of the monitoring mission, which began December 27.
