ACEH - The West Aceh District Disaster Management Agency (BPBD) has confirmed that a 6.5-hectare land fire in the area belonging to local residents has been completely extinguished.
"Thank God, all land fires in two sub-districts are now 100 percent extinguished," said Teuku Ronal Nehdiansyah, Acting Head of the West Aceh BPBD, in Meulaboh, Antara News Agency, Sunday, August 24.
The areas that were successfully extinguished were in Alue On Village, Puuk Village, Kaway XVI Sub-district, with a fire area of approximately 2.5 hectares, and in Keub Village, Arongan Lambalek Sub-district, with an area of approximately 4 hectares.
Teuku Ronal said the land fires have disrupted residents' activities due to the smoke they produce. In addition to causing respiratory problems, the fires also damage forest ecosystems and threaten biodiversity.
The extinguishing efforts involved officers from the West Aceh Regional Disaster Management Agency (BPBD), the Kaway XVI and Arongan Lambalek Fire Department Posts, TNI soldiers from the Kaway XVI and Arongan Lambalek Military District Commands, local police personnel, officers from the Aceh Region IV KPH, and the local community.
