Protests are continuing across Syria, as the Syrian regime shows no signs of loosening its brutal crackdown despite an international outcry.
On Twitter, netizens continue to follow and react to developments on the ground. Dima Khatib writes:

In another tweet she mocks the Arab League, a political bloc for leaders of the 22 Arab countries, who have just issued their first statement regarding Syria since the violent crackdown on protesters started last March. Khatib tweets:
