Heatwave conditions are currently being recorded in Spain and other European countries.
A heatwave continues to grip large parts of Europe, with authorities in many countries issuing health warnings over high temperatures.
Southern Spain is the worst-affected region, with temperatures in the mid-40s recorded in Seville and neighbouring areas.
A new heat record for June of 46 degrees was set on Saturday in the town of El Granado, according to Spain's national weather service - which also said this month is on track to be the hottest June on record.
