In Canada, the embers from last year’s record-setting fires smoldered under the ground’s surface through the cold winter months, never quite going out completely. The fires, known as “zombie fires” or overwintering fires, have returned. Also, Azerbaijan and Armenia are engaged in peace talks after Azerbaijan’s military seized Nagorno-Karabakh in September, displacing tens of thousands of Armenians.
