Indonesia warns against starting open blazes as haze from wildfires spreads to Malaysia

Indonesian authorities warned they will take legal action against anyone starting open fires due to blazes on Borneo creating choking haze that spread into Malaysia. The smoke has severely impacted regions like Sarawak in Malaysia, prompting the closure of many schools due to "very unhealthy" air quality. Officials vowed strict action against those who destroy nature and forests, citing illegal land clearing as a primary cause.
