Based on public reporting, and my testing, the Mojang Bug Tracker (also known as Mojira) returns an error when accessing any bug report.
This is caused by https://bugs.mojang.com/api/jql-search-post returning 504 Gateway Time-out.

Instead of returning the JSON data, the URL returns HTML, or more specifically, a complete HTML document without any substance (that is, a document with a title, stylesheets, and other stuff in the head, but nothing but any empty div in the body). Obviously, HTML isn't valid JSON, so JSON.parse fails. The reason for this is unknown.

https://bugs.mojang.com/api/jql-search-post appears to be getting data about the post (the request contains the post ID, in this case MCPE-230231). If I hijack the response and replace it with an empty (but valid) JSON object, I get an error saying no such post exists.

In their video on the subject, Phoenix SC got a different error message than I got (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=65H6BZ2VWgU) though the root cause seems the same. Their error message (visible at 3:31) actually displays part of the invalid JSON data, while mine does not. Their video was posted a little over an hour ago, and it was filmed sometime today.

According to MDN, a 504 Gateway Timeout "indicates that the server, while acting as a gateway or proxy, did not get a response in time from the upstream server in order to complete the request". I can not speculate about the cause, as I don't know much about this area of web development. I know frontend much better than I know backend.

Interestingly, only issues for Bedrock Edition are impacted. The Java Edition section of the bug tracker remains accessible, though I have not tested if users can post issue reports and comments.
