France is facing a severe heat wave forcing nearly 1,350 schools to shut fully or partially, nearly double from the previous day.
Overheated and poorly ventilated classrooms have made conditions unsafe for students, prompting authorities to prioritise school closures nationwide.
Paris is among the hardest hit, with temperatures expected to peak at 41°C (106°F). The summit of the Eiffel Tower has been closed to visitors for the first time this summer due to the extreme heat, although access remains open to lower levels. Officials advise residents to stay hydrated and avoid direct sun.
Health warnings are in place for vulnerable groups including children, the elderly and those with chronic illnesses. The government urges everyone to take precautions as the heat wave continues to strain public services and disrupt daily life.
