Syrian human rights groups say at least 117 activists, intellectuals and anti-government supporters were arrested Monday as part of a growing crackdown on protesters. Over the past month, at least 200 people have been killed in Syria since anti-government protests began. Human Rights Watch is reporting Syrian security forces in at least two towns prevented medical personnel and others from reaching wounded protesters last week.
