The Indonesian National Board for Disaster Management (BNPB) has initiated a Weather Modification Operation (OMC) in South Sumatra following a reported increase in hotspots across the region. The operation is a strategic response intended to mitigate the risk of forest and land fires by inducing rainfall through cloud seeding technology.
This deployment represents a recurring effort by the agency to manage environmental hazards in the province. By proactively addressing the rise in hotspots, authorities aim to prevent the escalation of fire incidents that frequently impact air quality and ecological stability in the area.
