In this October 22, 2015, photo, Daniel Halaby, a gay Syrian who fled from the Islamic State group, poses with the rainbow flag symbolic of LGBT rights in his apartment in southern Turkey. Halaby and others say the militants often torture suspected homosexuals or pore through their laptops and mobile phones trying to track down other gay men. Gays often fear they could be turned over to the militants by friends or family because of the stigma against homosexuality. Halaby spoke on the condition that he be identified by the name he uses in his political activism, and that neither his face nor location be revealed.
