Summary
More than two months into a haze crisis that has blanketed parts of Southeast Asia, worsening air quality and mounting health concerns are fueling frustration among residents and renewed calls for authorities to hold those responsible for the fires accountable. The concentration of microscopic toxic particles known as PM2.5 in Palembang, South Sumatra, reached 1,702 micrograms per cubic meter, making it the most polluted city in Indonesia. The haze has turned the skies dark and yellowish, and even wearing a mask won't protect residents as the residue will stick to their clothes.
