There isn't official confirmation as yet, but all indications are that the fire at a Palma care home on Tuesday evening was caused by a phone charger that was in a poor condition.

Was it the charger, or the battery in the phone whilst being charged? There is serious doubt about certain types of batteries. E.G. Some like the Lithium / Iron type used in Electric Scooters have caught fire during overnight charging.
