Singapore's third-quarter layoffs reached their highest level since 2020, with employers cutting jobs across sectors, Reuters reports.

The city-state braces for worsening haze as Indonesia responds to regional political tensions, with authorities warning of toxic air quality affecting neighboring countries, per Reuters.

Flight SIA876 is descending into Singapore at 1,775 feet, heading southwest toward the city's main airport, while Navigator of the Seas arrives in port, kicking off its debut season, per cruise critic.com.

The haze situation is expected to improve as rainfall eases toxic conditions in Singapore and Malaysia, according to Japan Times.
