What happened

Well supportedReported by 13 independent outlets

Western Europe recorded its hottest June ever, with temperatures significantly above the seasonal norm. A severe heat wave prompted increased demand for cooling systems across Europe, with over two-thirds of Europeans experiencing temperatures above 35 degrees Celsius during a June 15–30 heat wave. This surge in demand has led to a massive increase in international orders for Turkish air conditioning manufacturers.
