Tunis summer 2026 hottest since 1950

Summer 2026 in Tunisia is the hottest since 1950, with temperatures rising by an average of +2.9 degrees above historical averages. Long, severe heatwaves have occurred, surpassing previous records and reaching 49.7°C in the Kairouan province. The rising temperatures have caused frequent electricity and water outages, health impacts—including fatalities from heatstroke—adding to the suffering of citizens and increasing political tensions. The increase in heatwaves is attributed to climate change, which has worsened energy and water shortages, as well as deteriorated prison conditions due to the heat.
