Blocked in Syria, confirmed by community testing in April 2026, where access from a Syrian connection returned an Envato-branded block page served through Cloudflare.

## Official timeline

## Community reports

- 2026-04-10 — Investigated. Community testing confirmed that VideoHive is blocked in Syria. Accessing videohive.net from a Syrian IP (Syriatel ISP) returns an Envato-branded block page stating "Your request has been blocked," served via Cloudflare. The block page displays the visitor's IP address and a Cloudflare Ray ID, indicating geo-based access restrictions applied at the CDN level. (evidence: https://api.unblocksyria.com/files/evidence/pfvp1vvrl5fel419hd5jkz4r/xp47e77b7tznemz7a7uwq3k2-1000073179.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.
