It comes as the largest LGBT celebration in the country has been suspended since 2021.
While celebrations were held around the world for Pride month, there were no major LGBT events in China.The organiser, a group named ShanghaiPride, did not give a reason for the move,it was "cancelling all upcoming activities and taking a break from scheduling any future events."
And last month, the Beijing LGBT Center became the latest group to stop operations "due to forces beyond our control". A leader of another LGBT organisation, who has also left China, told the BBC that pressure from authorities has taken a toll on those pushing for social change. Homosexuality was decriminalised in China in 1997 and the Chinese Society of Psychiatry stopped classifying it as a mental disorder in 2001.
