Zoom Video Communications Inc. drew fresh questions over its relationship with the Chinese government when it shut down a U.S. human-rights organization’s account shortly after its videoconference on the 1989 Tiananmen Square massacre.

San Francisco-based Humanitarian China said when it tried to access the platform Sunday, it found the account had been closed without notification or explanation from the videoconferencing platform. Zoom ZM, +7.58% quietly reactivated the account Wednesday, after the news organization Axios reported on the shutdown, said Zhou Fengsuo, president of Humanitarian China.
