Washington Post – DAMASCUS – The mandate of a much-criticized Arab League monitoring mission in Syria expired Thursday amid calls from opposition activists to abandon the effort as a failure.
Arab ministers are due to meet Sunday to decide whether to extend the mission for another month or seek tougher action against the government led by President Bashar al-Assad, whose crackdown a 10-month old uprising has so far left at least 5,000 people dead.
