The heatwave in June claimed the lives of over 12,000 people in Europe.

In the second half of June, a record heatwave that engulfed Western Europe caused at least 12,000 deaths. This was reported by the AFP agency, summarizing statistics from seven countries. The World Health Organization emphasized that most of these casualties could have been prevented. This situation once again highlights the negative impacts of climate change. Countries need to strive to reduce energy consumption and address climate-related issues. Heatwaves occurring in Europe are expected to continue in the coming years.
