The paper, citing its sources in the Chechen special services, called the wave of detentions a "prophylactic sweep". The journalist who first reported on the subject went into hiding. There have been calls for reprisals against journalists who report on the situation +
As news spread of Chechen authorities' actions, which have been described as part of a systematic anti-LGBTÂ purge, Russian and international activists scrambled to evacuate survivors of the camps and other vulnerable Chechens but were met with difficulty obtaining visas to+
conduct them safely beyond Russia.
The reports of the persecution were met with a variety of reactions worldwide. The head of it, Ramzan Kadyrov, denied not only the occurrence of any persecution but also the existence of gay men in Chechnya, adding that such people would be killed by their own families.
Officials in Moscow were skeptical, although in late May the Russian government reportedly agreed to send an investigative team to Chechnya. Numerous national leaders and other public figures in the west condemned Chechnya's actions, and protests were held in Russia and elsewhere
A report released in December 2018 by the Organization of Security and Cooperation in Europe(OSCE) confirmed claims that persecution of LGBT persons had taken place and was ignored by authorities.

On 11 January 2019, it was reported that another 'gay purge' had begun in the country in December 2018, with several gay men and women being detained. The Russian LGBT Network believes that around 40 persons were detained and two killed.
