"Wildfires ravage Calabria as Italy braces for intensifying heatwave"

Wildfires have erupted in the southern Italian region of Calabria, while properties in Sicily experienced power outages due to soaring temperatures during a heat wave. Some areas in eastern Sicily reached temperatures as high as 47 degrees Celsius (116.6 degrees Fahrenheit), close to the European record of 48.8 degrees Celsius. The heat wave has caused fires to spread in Calabria, prompting additional firefighting teams to be called in. Italy, heavily impacted by climate change, has also suffered deadly floods and hail storms in recent months.
