In plain language

A forest fire has been confirmed in Indonesia occurring between October 12 and 18, 2026. This event is rated at a severity level of two, meaning officials are closely monitoring its impact on the environment.

What is a wildfire? A wildfire is an uncontrolled fire that burns through wildlands like forests or grasslands. They often start from natural causes like lightning or human activities. Once they begin, dry plants and wind can help the flames spread quickly across the landscape, especially during hot or dry seasons.

If you are near a fire, stay indoors and keep windows closed to protect yourself from breathing in smoky air.
