Description
Bangladesh is struggling through its lengthiest heatwave in half a century, as temperatures have surged to around 40 degrees Celsius (104 degrees Fahrenheit) in the South Asian nation's capital of Dhaka. Tens of thousands of primary schools were shut down by the government, and electricity production has been drastically cut, even as demand for air conditioners and fans has surged.
