Bromo Fire Threatens Tourists and Land | San Francisco News
Description
A fierce wildfire has erupted at Mount Bromo in Indonesia, burning over 60 hectares—equivalent to more than 80 soccer fields—inside a major tourist park. With steep terrain and strong winds hindering ground crews, authorities are deploying two water-bombing helicopters and exploring cloud seeding to bring rain. Parts of the tourist area are closed for safety, while similar fires rage across Sumatra and Borneo, including a tragic fatality in West Kalimantan from smoke inhalation. These dry-season blazes continue to pose serious environmental and public health threats, drifting haze even into Singapore and Malaysia.
