Malaysia launches cloud seeding in Sarawak as haze worsens; Indonesia fires persist

Malaysia began a three-day cloud seeding operation over eastern Sarawak to replenish dams amid dry weather and haze, while neighboring Indonesia continues to battle forest fires. The operation targets water supply rather than haze suppression, indicating a dual climate and environmental stress. Transboundary haze from Indonesian fires remains a recurring regional issue, with this operation marking a proactive mitigation effort.
