## Community reports

- 2026-05-06 — Investigated. Community testing confirmed that APKPure is blocked in Syria. Accessing apkpure.com from a Syrian IP returns a Cloudflare-style WAF block page reading «Sorry, you have been blocked. You are unable to access apkpure.com». The block is enforced at the service's WAF, not at the network level. (evidence: https://api.unblocksyria.com/files/evidence/ozluvnzv3nq3ip0e7vb26yd2/a90ec1hgvn8cuwm1rvq2klm2-1000077214.png)

## Context

These are geo-restrictions the companies applied themselves, not filtering by Syrian ISPs and not a legal requirement. US and EU sanctions on Syria were lifted in 2025. See https://unblocksyria.com/llms.txt for the regulatory summary and https://unblocksyria.com/en/about for citations to the specific orders and regulations.
