National hotspot Increases 89 Percent, Fire in Central Kalimantan (Kalteng)'s Peatlands Hasn't Been Completely Extinguished

The Ministry of Forestry's Forest Fire Control Post report dated November 2 2026 noted that many plumes of smoke were still found in peatlands in Tanjung Taruna, Pulang Pisau Regency. Blackouts must continue.

Handling is also underway in Jabiren, which has not yet been completely extinguished, as well as a number of locations in Palangka Raya where fire and smoke still remain.

At other locations, officers began to record progress. The fires in Pematang Kambat, Seruyan Regency, and Pasir Panjang, West Kotawaringin Regency, were reportedly successfully extinguished.

Meanwhile, the team in Pasir Putih, East Kotawaringin Regency, is still extinguishing the boundary blocks and cooling the points emitting smoke.

In Jambi, the fire in Solusin Village, Batang Hari Regency, was reported to have been extinguished. High-intensity rain for around 30 minutes helped with handling during the operation.

Hotspots are not the number of fire incidents

Hotspots are an indication of surface temperature anomalies detected by satellites. This figure cannot be directly equated with the number of fire incidents or the area of ​​land burned.
