> Indonesia has sanctioned six firms and frozen another company’s licence after President Prabowo Subianto pledged to pursue those responsible for wildfires in parts of Sumatra and Kalimantan. Firefighters are still battling the blazes, which have caused a cross-border haze crisis. Nearly 94,000 hectares burned across Indonesia last month, forestry data shows.
