Curated summary
Indonesia has stepped up efforts to fight growing wildfires across the archipelago, using helicopters, hundreds of firefighters and disaster workers. The biggest blaze is in Bromo Tengger Semeru National Park in East Java, where about 743 hectares have burned, while peatlands in Sumatra also caught fire during an unusually dry season. The park is closed to visitors, and officials say dry weather and stronger El Nino conditions are raising fire risk.
