We cannot say this happened. First of all the Li Po are not being used in the Av industry.The planes transport every day, thousands (not being recharged, ) with no reasons for alarm.
Do you remember the 747F Dubai(?) crash?

In October 2010, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) issued a Safety Alert for Operators highlighting the fact that the cargo on board Flight 6 contained a large quantity of lithium batteries and that Halon 1301 was inefficient in fighting fires involving them.[8] The FAA issued a restriction on the carrying of lithium batteries in bulk on passenger flights.[28]
