Live: Views of Singapore's smog-shrouded skyline

Singapore, the Southeast Asian financial hub known for its futuristic skyline, has been blanketed in milky haze as smoke from fires in neighboring Indonesia drifts across the region. The haze has affected Singapore for weeks, with conditions deteriorating in recent days. The pollution has disrupted flights, closed outdoor sports facilities and prompted organizers to call off a major running event. Air pollution reached its highest level of the year on Friday, entering the "very unhealthy" range. Indonesia is currently experiencing one of its worst wildfire seasons in over a decade, with fires continuing to spread amid strong El Niño conditions and the degradation of peatlands. Driven by monsoon winds, the thick smoke has triggered a severe transboundary haze crisis, sharply worsening air quality in neighboring Southeast Asian countries.
