CroatiaThe article reports on a significant rise in mortality rates in France during a heatwave in June 2024. According to data from the French Public Health Agency, deaths increased by nearly 30% compared to the previous week, with a particularly sharp rise among individuals aged 65 and older. In Paris, the increase was even higher, reaching 62%. The heatwave saw temperatures exceeding 40°C in many areas, leading to school closures and train cancellations. Officials, including Prime Minister Élisabeth Borne, face potential no-confidence votes over their response to the crisis. While some officials downplay the severity, comparing it to past heatwaves like the 2003 event which caused around 15,000 deaths, environmental groups estimate the toll could reach 10,000. The situation highlights concerns about aging populations and inadequate preparedness for extreme weather.
