Green forest fire notification in Indonesia

On 14/09/2026, a forest fire started in Indonesia, until 22/09/2026.

In plain language

A confirmed forest fire occurred in Indonesia between September 14 and September 22, 2026. This was rated as a moderate event, meaning it was significant but not at the highest severity level.

What is a wildfire? Wildfires are unplanned fires that burn through natural areas like forests. They happen when dry plants, oxygen, and a heat source—like lightning or a stray spark—come together. These fires can move quickly, fueled by wind and dry wood, helping clear old growth so new plants can eventually grow.

Keep your windows and doors closed to block out smoke, and always have a family emergency plan ready in case you need to move.
