A heat wave in India has killed more than 1,100 people in the southeastern states of Andhra Pradesh and Telangana.

An official from the Meteorological Department in the city of Hyderabad said the heat wave is the worst in nearly 10 years. Many cities in India have set new high temperature records.

High temperatures are common in India in May and June. But dry winds in the past week have intensified heat. Many workers and homeless people could not get inside soon enough to escape the heat.
