PALEMBANG, Indonesia, Sept 14 — Firefighters on a western Indonesian island were battling large peatland fires today that have covered Palembang, a city of nearly two million people, in a haze for weeks, officials said.
The fire has burned through 75 hectares of peatland in the Ogan Ilir regency of South Sumatra province and around the toll road connecting it to Palembang, head of Sumatra island's forest and land fire control Ferdian Krisnanto told AFP. The latest fires, raging for around two weeks, have caused the sky in Palembang to become hazy and reduced visibility for residents, according to an AFP journalist.
