During the Cop30 climate summit in Belém, Brazil, a fire erupted in the pavilion area of the conference center, leading to an immediate evacuation of delegates. The UN confirmed that no injuries occurred, but the incident disrupted critical negotiations aimed at strengthening international climate efforts. UN Secretary-General António Guterres had earlier urged for a deal on fossil fuel phase-out, a contentious topic among nations. The fire forced the cancellation of key meetings, including one involving the Alliance of Small Island States. With the summit scheduled to conclude on Friday, the disruption raises concerns about meeting deadlines and achieving a consensus on climate action.
