Thick smoke from forest fires has led to a blanket of white and yellowish haze in the city of Pontianak, reducing visibility to less than 1 kilometer (0.62 miles).Fires have also disrupted airline flights for several days in Indonesia's West Kalimantan province as an intensifying El Niño weather pattern and a prolonged dry season worsened the impact of blazes.Poor air quality and limited visibility have also hampered firefighting efforts, carried out with equipment from Japan that arrived on Thursday.Across Indonesia, seasonal forest fires are beginning to subside, but thick haze still shrouds parts of the island of Kalimantan.  Video courtesy of Associated Press
