2022 Ürümqi fire
On 24 November 2022, a fire broke out in a residential high-rise in Ürümqi, Xinjiang, China. Ten people were killed and an additional nine were injured. There were questions as to whether China’s strict enforcement of the zero-COVID policy meant that the residents could not leave the building or interfered with the efforts of firefighters.
