NASA satellite records 41,394 fires across Southeast Asia in a single week

An r/malaysia post with Environment flair shares NASA satellite data recording 41,394 fires across Southeast Asia in a single week, noting the apparent bursts come from the satellite passing over twice a day. Tracked as a fire-count satellite observation within the ongoing transboundary haze episode driven by Indonesian fires, distinct from the NASA carbon monoxide reading already on the board. Affected areas, per-country counts, and any agency statement are not stated in the post.
