Indonesia ramps up wildfire measures
Indonesia has succeeded in intensifying its efforts to combat forest fires by using techniques such as artificial rainfall and aerial firefighting. Between January and July, over 200,000 hectares were affected, and more than five million people on the islands of Borneo and Sumatra were exposed to the dangers of toxic smoke resulting from the fires. The situation requires special attention for children, the elderly, and pregnant women with asthma, with more than five million masks distributed to combat air pollution. Despite achieving some positive results, firefighting efforts continue to prevent the spread of fires, which are often attributed to land clearing burns. This year, the area affected is smaller compared to previous El Niño seasons.
