Original title: Foreign media: Greece’s “historic heat wave” caused frequent fires and many people were admitted to hospital

Reference News Network reported on August 1According to a report from the German News Agency in Athens, Greece continued to suffer in the historic heat wave, with firefighters struggling to put out multiple fires over the weekend.

According to a report from the Greek National Television on Sunday, local time, at least 16 people had to be treated in hospitals on the Peloponnese Peninsula due to respiratory diseases (caused by the fire).

According to reports, the fire caused by the heat wave was brought under control on Sunday morning. However, the Greek Ministry of Civil Protection warned that the danger of fire caused by drought is still great.

This is called a “historical heat wave” by meteorologists, which has caused the temperature in Greece to reach 43 degrees Celsius in the past few days, and some places are expected to experience high temperatures of about 45 degrees on Sunday.

The Greek Meteorological Agency said on Sunday that there should be new peaks in temperature on Monday and Tuesday. The night temperature will also remain high, especially in the city center, where the night temperature will exceed 30 degrees.

The Greek Ministry of Labor stated that outdoor work should be reduced as much as possible.

According to the report, the animal protection organization called on residents to provide water for stray animals in shaded areas and to ensure water supply.

It is not clear when the hot weather will ease. Some meteorologists predict that this high temperature state will continue for two more weeks. (Compile/Wu Mei)Return to Sohu to see more
