Hello,
What keyserver do you use?
It seems pacman is trying to refresh the gpg keys from whatever keyserver you
use, but it is failing as it cannot connect to the keyserver.
Maybe try a different keyserver and see if it can then fetch the new keys?
Good luck,

Tried both the default in /etc/pacman.d/gnupg/gpg.conf:
keyserver hkp://pool.sks-keyservers.net
and, per the arch wiki
keyserver hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com
both were having problems at the time. I was worried the entire keyserver
infrastructure was gone/deprecated after the 2018 meltdown of most of the gpg
keyservers with the attack that added thousands of signatures per-key that
basically broke everything (web of trust, verses first-seen).
Currently I have keyserver.ubuntu.com active and will keep an eye on it.
