印度尼西亚东爪哇省的布罗莫腾格塞梅鲁国家公园自本周一以来发生森林火灾,造成60公顷土地被焚毁[1]。国家灾难管理机构发言人阿卜杜尔·穆哈里表示,"布罗莫斜坡上有多个热点,地形陡峭,地面消防队难以到达"[1]。他指出该地区强风可能加速火灾蔓延[1]。
为应对火灾,当局已部署两架水轰直升机参与灭火行动,并准备进行人工降雨等天气改造操作[1]。同时,部分旅游区已被关闭[1]。此外,苏门答腊岛和婆罗洲岛自月初以来也报告了多处森林火灾,其中西加里曼丹省克塔邦县的火灾已造成1人死亡[1]。
A forest fire has ravaged 60 hectares—equivalent to more than 80 football fields—in Mount Bromo Tengger Semeru National Park in East Java, Indonesia, since the beginning of the week [1]. According to Abdul Muhari, a spokesperson for the National Disaster Management Agency, multiple hotspots have emerged on the mountain's steep slopes, making ground-based firefighting efforts extremely difficult [1]. Strong winds in the region are expected to accelerate the fire's spread, further complicating containment efforts [1].
In response to the crisis, authorities have deployed two water-bombing helicopters to combat the blaze [1]. The government is also preparing weather modification operations, including artificial rain, to help suppress the flames [1]. Officials have closed portions of the national park to tourists as a precautionary measure [1]. The situation reflects a broader pattern of forest fires across the Indonesian archipelago, with Sumatra and Borneo reporting multiple blazes since the start of the month, including one in West Kalimantan's Ketapang District that has claimed at least one life [1].
