In plain language

A forest fire has been confirmed in Indonesia and is expected to last for about two weeks. It is currently rated at a level two severity, which means officials are monitoring the situation carefully to keep people safe.

What is a wildfire? A wildfire is an unplanned fire that burns in natural areas like forests or grasslands. They often start from lightning strikes or human activity during hot, dry weather. Once a fire begins, wind and dry plants can help the flames spread quickly across the landscape.

Stay indoors with windows closed to keep out smoke and follow local news for instructions from fire officials.
