Activity Summary

Limited in Syria. The main website became accessible after a volunteer's outreach in February 2026, but Hedra says sign-in and sign-up still fail because its authentication provider, WorkOS, geo-blocks Syria, and the company has no way to change that on its side.

Community Updates
