MCPE-131704I was in the nether and there was fire, so I broke the netherack under the fire and the fire was still there floating invisibly, It still burnt things though. and when I place the block back the fire comes back.
Im on Nintendo switch version 1.17.hotfix and the basic summary is when you break the block under fire in th nether the fire just goes invisible but still works as fire. also im sorry that I don't have a screen shot I just don't know how to get pics from my switch to the computer.

Fire blocks are not extinguished if firetick is off when the block the fire is attached to is destroyed. Instead the fire becomes invisible but still emits light and sets entities on fire that touch it.
Reproduction steps:
- Create a new Minecraft creative world and turn off fire tick in the settings.
- In creative mode, place down a flammable block.
- Ignite the top of the block.
- Break the block.
- Step into the space where the block was and note the fire UI.
Observed results: The fire is still there, it was not extinguished.
Expected results: The fire block is replaced with air when the block it is attached to is destroyed.
Repeating these steps with fire tick turned on will cause the fire to disappear as expected.
Note: I saw this has been reported in MCPE-131704 but it was closed as the report didn't explain the steps. I decided to create a new report with a more detailed description of the problem as the original post made it sound like it might be a world generation glitch.
If possible, can you export and upload the affected world here? If not, maybe a seed with exact coordinates of the fire?
Cleaning up old tickets: This ticket had been set to 'Awaiting Response', but has not received a response from the reporter (~3 months+) so is being closed as Incomplete. If you feel this is still a valid issue then please comment, or create a new ticket following the Issue Guidelines which includes steps to reproduce the problem.
