Summer storms leave thousands without electricity

Fierce summer storms battered parts of France for a second consecutive night, leaving at least 135,500 homes without electricity Sunday morning and injuring 30 people in the country’s northeastern Haute-Marne region.

Many of those who lost power overnight were in the country’s northern Normandy and Champagne regions, as well as along the Spanish border in the Midi-Pyrénées.

ERDF said that it had deployed 1,000 technicians and providers to help restore electricity to affected areas as soon as possible.
