In France, temperatures are expected to rise again as a new heat wave sweeps across the country.
In several places, including in southwestern France, the thermometer passed the 40-degree mark on Tuesday.
Nearly 75 percent of the country is covered by an orange heat warning, which is the second highest level.
The fire risk is assessed as "very high" in several departments. On Monday, nearly 12,000 residents were evacuated in southwestern France where an ongoing forest fire has already burned down nearly 5,000 hectares.
