GEM’s Official Pride Statement
As #pride parades are being held around the world, we want to shed light on places where they aren’t, such as #Syria, and what that means for local #LGBTQIA+ communities.
Please read our statement commemorating #pridemonth.

🚨 Syria’s LGBTQIA+ Community is Under Attack!
Since the power shift, LGBTQIA+ people in Syria face escalating violence due security fragility in the country, Now, authorities are openly targeting trans women, subjecting them to brutal arrests, physical abuse, and sexual torture—proudly recorded as a show of control.
This is state-sponsored brutality. The world must act. Syria must not return to being a torture state!
