It is a similar situation in Portugal, where seven areas, including the capital, Lisbon, are located at the highest level on alert.

Meanwhile, the German meteorological service warned that temperatures may reach approximately 38 degrees Celsius on Tuesday and Wednesday – that are likely to be record temperatures.

The thermal wave has reduced levels in the River Rhine – a major shipping road – which limits the amount of shipping ships that can transport and increase the shipping costs.

Countries in the Balkans and around them were struggling with the intense heat, although the temperatures began to cool slightly.

In Türkiye, firefighters continue their efforts to put out hundreds of forest fires that have erupted in recent days.

A fire in the Seferihisar area, 50 km (30 miles) southwest of the city of Ezer, is fed with winds and has already destroyed about 20 homes, and some residential areas should have been evacuated.

Heat waves have become more common due to human climate change, according to the United Nations Government Group on climate change.

Severe hot weather will occur often – and becomes more intense – as the planet continues to warm, he said.

Richard Alan, professor of climate science at the University of Reading in the United Kingdom, explained that high levels of greenhouse gases make it difficult for the planet to lose excess heat.

“The warmer and thirsty atmosphere is more effective in drying the soil, which means that the heat waves are condensed, as moderate thermal events are now extreme.”
