Firefox for iPadOS: Where are the tabs?

With the new Firefox for iPadOS, I can create a new tab, but there’s no mechanism for getting to it. The tabs at the top of the screen are gone, and there’s no button at the bottom of the screen as there is in iOS (I just checked). I can, of course, switch to the new tab immediately, but then I can’t go back to the old one. If there’s a way to switch tabs now, I can’t find it.

Update: the tabs came back. I don’t recall what I did, but somehow they were gone. Unloading Firefox and re-starting it brought them back. If it happens again, I’ll get a screenshot.
