Á¦ ¸ñ Arab League mission arrives amid violence in Syria Á¶È¸¼ö 5890

Cairo (CNN) -- Members of an Arab League delegation arrived Monday in Syria to look into events on the ground and whether Syria is upholding a commitment to end a brutal crackdown.

The trip comes amid reports of raging violence, opposition groups say, particularly in the flashpoint city of Homs.

The Local Coordination Committees of Syria (LCCS) said 42 people were killed Monday -- 34 in Homs, four in Hama, two in Idlib, one in Daraa and one in the suburbs of Damascus.

State-run news agency SANA reported on burials of "martyrs" from the army and security forces who were killed by "armed terrorist groups" -- a phrase Syria has used frequently to describe some opposition forces throughout the uprising.

And SANA said that people in Homs "organized a mass march to express condemnation of the two terrorist attacks committed last Friday in Damascus and rejection of the foreign interference attempts."

Dual bombings targeted Syria's security apparatus Friday in Damascus. Syria said those attacks killed "more than 44 civilians and military members" and wounded 166 others.

The arrival of the 100 observers in Syria is part of an agreement that President Bashar al-Assad's government made with the Arab League last week, calling for withdrawing Syrian security forces from around cities, releasing detainees and ending all forms of violence.

Members of the delegation will visit Homs on Tuesday, a senior Arab League official told CNN.

Jamal Barakat, a member of the Egyptian National Council for Human Rights, told CNN he was part of the Arab League mission.

The LCCS said a member of the Arab League observatory mission was wounded by gunfire Monday from security forces. But, the Arab League denied the reoprt.

"We will be on a fact-finding mission to make sure the Syrian government is implementing the article of the protocol they signed," Barakat told CNN.

Arab League Secretary-General Nabil Al Araby "emphasized the importance of neutrality, objectivity, and transparency of our work," Barakat said.
