The government has decided to escalate firefighting efforts in the Bromo Tengger Semeru National Park (TNBTS) in East Java. This intensification will utilize the “Water Booming” method, a technique involving water dispersal, in conjunction with ground troops. The decision comes as operations are currently hampered by adverse weather conditions. Water Booming is being implemented to bolster existing suppression activities. Authorities aim to control the blaze and protect the wider TNBTS area. Further details regarding the scale of the fire and specific challenges haven't been released, but the deployment signals a serious response to the situation. The combined approach hopes to overcome weather-related obstacles and effectively extinguish the fire.
