Extreme weather has forced people to flee their homes in Greece and China. Wildfires raged in Greece for a sixth day amid high temperatures and dry conditions, requiring the evacuation of some 19,000 people from the island of Rhodes. Massive floods swept through a village in the Fuyang district of eastern China’s city of Hangzhou, leaving at least five people dead and more than 1,500 residents evacuated.

As Spain held a general election Sunday, temperatures were expected to average above 35 degrees Celsius (95 degrees Fahrenheit.)
