Active fires in Mongolia
Satellites detected 4 thermal hotspots in Mongolia in the last 24 h, grouped into 1 fire cluster. None reached an intense fire radiative power above 100 MW, which suggests mostly small or agricultural fires.
The most active fire is 17 km WSW of Ulan Bator with 4 detections and a peak of 16 MW, last seen Sun 2:05 pm local time.
Fires are assigned to the country of the nearest listed city, so a fire close to a border can appear under the neighbour.

Official information
The Global Wildfire Information System, GWIS (gwis.jrc.ec.europa.eu), maps fire danger and burnt areas worldwide; evacuation orders come from national civil protection and local authorities.
Satellite thermal hotspots are not all wildfires: gas flares, steel works, volcanoes and planned agricultural or prescribed burns show up too. VIIRS passes over most places about twice a day, so a fire can start or grow between passes, and thick smoke or cloud can hide one.
