Sky lantern - Normal Paper Fly Lantern
Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
Sky lanterns sold under the brand "Normal Paper Fly Lantern" are subject to a recall due to fire hazard risk. The product consists of a flying paper lantern made from cotton-fiber paper with a metal frame holding a candle inside, available in yellow, pink, or blue. The lanterns come in two sizes: 40 cm diameter by 100 cm height (Art. 304-6153000, barcode 56908933508082) and 30 cm diameter by 75 cm height (Art. 304-6154000, barcode 5690893755924). Because users cannot control the flight direction, speed, or landing location of the lanterns, they frequently come into contact with flammable materials such as dry vegetation or buildings, creating a significant fire risk.
Authorities have ordered a sales ban, withdrawal from the market, and recall of the product from consumers. The source does not specify what action affected consumers should take to return or dispose of the product.

The product poses a risk of fire because users do not have any flight direction and speed control and can not influence the point where the lantern will go down/fall. It is therefore very difficult or impossible to avoid the lantern coming into contact with flammable material, e.g. dry vegetation or buildings.Incident reported
