GIRONA, Spain – Spanish authorities rescued native fish from a river shrivelled by a prolonged drought on Wednesday, April 26, as the country endured abnormally high temperatures that Spain’s meteorological agency attributed to climate change.

The country is facing unseasonably high temperatures more typical of summer. Meteorological agency AEMET said this month was likely to be the most intense April on the Iberian Peninsula since records began.
