Europe’s Deadly Heatwave Hits Record Highs
Description
Europe’s scorching heatwave is claiming lives and shattering records as temperatures soar past 40°C across Poland, Germany, and the Czech Republic, with over 1,300 excess deaths already reported since late June. Overnight storms offered fleeting relief in France but killed a man in Belgium when a tree crashed into his car. Health officials fear a repeat of the deadly 2003 heatwave, with elderly deaths climbing despite improved care-home preparedness. Scientists warn biodiversity is already suffering as warming waters disrupt marine ecosystems, urging urgent action before the crisis fades once the heat breaks.
