Hottest spot on world: Electricity meters melted in western in Iran

Extremely hot weather on Sunday sent 50 people to hospital in the city of Dehloran in Iran's western province of Ilam, while another provincial city was registered as the hottest spot on the world.

The temperature in the city hit 51.4 degrees Centigrade above zero.

Media reports described the situation and the heat in Delloran as unprecedented and unnatural.

The report says the sizzling heat melted dozens of electricity meters in homes in Dehloran.

But the city was not the hottest location of Iran.

The temperature in the city of Mehran in Ilam reached 52 degrees Centigrade above zero, making it the world’s hottest spot on Sunday.
