A short, quotable summary of the last 24 hours and of the season. Rebuilt every hour.

Wildfire briefing: Cambodia

In the last 24 hours the VIIRS satellites have not detected any clusters of heat detections in Cambodia (NASA FIRMS; latest detection in the system: 13 Nov 2026, 03:38 UTC).

Fires with a WorldFires page still showing heat detections in the last 48 hours: 0.

Cambodia is running below the usual for this point in the year, at 54 % of the average: 1,529,527 hectares burned up to week 44, against an average of 2,843,369 in 2012–2025 (Copernicus GWIS). GWIS estimates for the current year are provisional and may change.

A heat detection is not a confirmed fire: farm burning and industry also produce them, and clouds or smoke can hide a fire.

If you are in danger, call your local emergency number and follow the instructions of the authorities. WorldFires is not an emergency service.
