France is counting the true human cost of its record-breaking June heatwave after health officials revealed 5,764 more people died than expected, making it the country's deadliest heat event since 2003. Published on July 22nd, the figures show more than half of the excess deaths occurred in just three days, as temperatures reached unprecedented levels across the country. The Paris region suffered the heaviest losses, while most victims were aged 75 or older. Across southern Europe, the crisis continues to deepen. Spain is battling one of its largest wildfires on record after flames consumed more than 32,000 hectares, while France, Greece, Italy and other countries face fresh fires, extreme heat and emergency restrictions. Scientists warn Europe is warming faster than any other continent, turning once-rare heatwaves into increasingly deadly annual disasters. #france #heatwave #europeheatwave #climatechange #globalwarming #spain #britain #greece _______________________________ Welcome to VERTEX – Your Hub for Global Politics, Geopolitics & International News VERTEX brings you in-depth analysis, breaking updates, and expert insights on the world’s most critical political and geopolitical developments.
