Vietnam posted a record high temperature of 44.1 degrees Celsius on Saturday, officials said.
The reading from a weather station in the north-central Thanh Hoa province breaks the country's previous high of 43.4 degrees and comes only a month after much of South Asia endured record-breaking temperatures.
