The temperature in China hit a new record of 52.2 degrees Celsius in the North-western part of the country.

The authorities have asked the individuals at Sanbao Village, which lies on the outskirts of Turpan City, to stay at home and have ordered special vehicles to spray water on major roads.

In some parts of Turpan City, ground surface temperatures had touched 80 degrees Celsius.

Scientists have noted that the temperature in the Northern Hemisphere has continued to be record-setting high, which is further exacerbated by climate change.

Furthermore, the Chinese authorities have given warnings about “multiple natural disasters” and advised people to take extra precautions this summer.
