BEIRUT — Pressure mounted on Syrian President Bashar Assad on Sunday as Turkey evacuated nationals from its diplomatic missions and the Arab League scheduled a meeting in Morocco on Wednesday to explore further action against the Syrian government.

Among the measures that will be discussed are possible ways of providing protection for civilians in Syria, the Arab League’s secretary general, Nabil Elaraby, said in Tripoli. He said the league may turn to the U.N. Security Council for help, a step that would echo the push toward military intervention against Libya this year.
