A raging wildfire illuminated the night sky in southern Greece, particularly in the Achaia region, fueled by high temperatures and strong winds, leading to the rapid engulfment of residential homes. The difficult weather conditions and strong winds hindered firefighting efforts, causing the flames to spread quickly, with one individual succumbing to fire injuries. In the United States, record-breaking high temperatures in the Northeast and Midwest prompted heat warnings for over 86 million residents, leading to cooling measures like using fire hydrants and fountains. Future high-temperature records are expected in various U.S. states, with authorities urging citizens to stay hydrated and seek shade to prevent heatstroke.
