Can a Fire attack be made into a hex that no longer holds an enemy unit, such as after a sniper or trigger removes the target?

The designer answered this directly on BGG, and the rulebook agrees.

No — A fire attack needs at least one enemy unit in the targeted hex for the shot to occur, so an emptied hex receives no attack roll. The exception is a Smoke shot, which may target an empty hex.
