Video: Syria: Arab League monitors mobbed by pro-Assad protesters The Arab League confirmed that 11 members of a team of monitors visiting the Syrian coastal city were slightly injured in an attack. Angry demonstrators shouted pro-government slogans and waved Syrian flags and pictures of President Bashar al-Assad. The footage shows one vehicle bearing Arab League insignia rolling through the street with punctured tyres and battered with dents. Another vehicle is surrounded by demonstrators chanting, "For your eyes only Assad." The Arab League condemned the attack and said the Syrian government had failed in its commitment to provide protection for the officals but added that League operations in the country had not been affected.
