Heat Wave - India
A searing heatwave has swept through two of the most populous states in India, hospitalising hundreds and killing nearly 170 people. Temperatures hit 43.5 degrees Celsius in some areas earlier this month, according to the Indian Meteorological Department (IMD).
Hospitals are overwhelmed and morgues filled to capacity, AP reports. Officials are now investigating the deaths and how many were directly caused by the soaring temperatures.
