What we can confirm

Multiple reputable news agencies and official reports state that a fire at an orphanage in Algiers, Algeria, killed 11 people and injured 19 others, matching the numbers in the claim. The only minor discrepancy is that sources describe the facility as an orphanage rather than a foster care home, but the casualty figures and location are consistent.
