Over 5,000 Heat-Related Deaths in Spain
Spain experienced more than 5,000 heat-related deaths over a three-month period from June to August 2026, marking a record high since data collection began in 2015, with 2,149 deaths recorded in August alone. These fatalities are attributed to severe heatwaves, which also caused unprecedented wildfires and extreme drought, with temperatures repeatedly exceeding 40°C. Temperatures are expected to continue rising in September, potentially surpassing normal levels by around 10°C, further increasing the risk of deaths and environmental damage across the country.
