The Malaysian Air Force is deploying an C-130 Hercules aircraft to conduct cloud seeding operations aimed at combating severe haze affecting the country. The initiative was announced by the agency’s director general, Meor Ismail Meor Akim, in a statement issued on Saturday. According to the plan, these operations were scheduled for both Saturday and Sunday, with the primary objective of alleviating the haze issue. However, the success of these missions depends heavily on favorable weather conditions and the presence of suitable clouds that can be effectively seeded.
