## About

Enterprise cloud platform providing compute, storage, networking, and database services

## Activity summary

Blocked in Syria, confirmed by community testing in February 2026, which found that the cloud page returns an export-control restriction message stating the request cannot be processed under U.S. export laws. The team sent official outreach to the company in April 2026 requesting a review, but no response has followed.

## Official timeline

- 2026-04-11 — Contacted Company. Official outreach email sent to Oracle at export_ww@oracle.com requesting review of Syria IP restrictions for Java and Oracle Cloud Infrastructure under the current OFAC and BIS framework.

## Community reports

- 2026-02-17 — Verified. Community verification from Syria confirms Oracle Cloud Infrastructure remains completely blocked. Accessing oracle.com/cloud/ displays an export control restriction page stating "Due to U.S. export control laws, we cannot process your request" with a contact reference to RPLS-Ops_ww@oracle.com. Tested on DSL network. (evidence: https://api.unblocksyria.com/files/evidence/ou3dxfeitsetyaixba0kbfsf/neb6lq5a4ho72dbjhck67dpu-screenshot-2026-02-17-145121.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.
