Indonesia’s disaster agency BNPB says it will review helicopter water-bombing safety after two aircraft crashes during wildfire response on Borneo in about a week. The latest, a privately operated Super Puma supporting BNPB, crashed in the Barito River in South Kalimantan on Nov. 8. One Indonesian crew member died; two other crew members survived, according to BNPB and state news agency ANTARA.

South Kalimantan Governor Muhidin said aerial firefighting in the province has been temporarily suspended, with crews shifting to ground operations because conditions are relatively under control after rainfall. BNPB says an official investigation into the crash is planned; no cause has been established in the sources reviewed. A separate Army Mi-17 crash in Central Kalimantan the previous week killed three crew members.
