## Community reports

- 2026-08-08 — Investigated. Community testing confirmed that SwissGear is blocked in Syria. Loading swissgear.com from a Syrian mobile connection returns a bare block page reading «You do not have permission to access this website» followed by «Your request was blocked». The refusal is served at the edge before any store content renders, so the catalogue, product pages, and checkout are all unreachable.

## 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.
