On November 24, 2022, a fire broke out in the Jixiangyuan residential compound in Urumqi, Xinjiang, causing 10 deaths.
The fire was not extinguished in time, leading to serious consequences, allegedly because fire trucks were unable to reach the best rescue point due to community lockdowns.

On November 25, 2022, multiple protest demonstrations against lockdowns broke out in Urumqi.

On the evening of November 26, students at Nanjing Communication University spontaneously gathered to mourn the victims of the Urumqi fire. The “White Paper Revolution” was ignited from there.

Late at night on November 26, citizens in Shanghai spontaneously gathered on Urumqi Middle Road to mourn the victims of the fire.

Holding up blank sheets of paper under the “Urumqi Middle Road” street sign, Shanghai residents shouted slogans to protest the inhumane zero-COVID policy and the extremely harsh suppression of free speech.

A large number of police then dispersed the crowd by force, with some protesters beaten and arrested.
