More than 600 people have died in recent days as a heatwave gripped the UK.
According to the British government, over 600 people have died in Wales and England due to the current heat wave. The dead are over 60 years old, and the highest number of deaths is among women.
More than 10,000 people have died in the UK from 2020 to June 2025 due to climate change.
This year, the hottest temperatures were in London and the West Midlands, with the Met Office predicting more heat after the second heat wave.
Due to the current heat wave, British citizens have turned to rivers and the seashores. In 2020, temperatures reached 40 degrees Celsius, which killed 3,271 people.
The British government has appealed to citizens not to leave their homes. The UK is under the influence of severe climate change, and there is a risk of an increase in deaths if the heat intensity continues.
On the other hand, the highest temperature in Europe was recorded in Paris at 40 degrees Celsius.
