AGP Executive Report
Last update: 12 hours agoHeat Plan rolls out nationwide: The Netherlands’ National Heat Plan takes effect across the country from Monday, with KNMI issuing a code yellow for heat and forecasts of 28–36°C (and locally up to 35°C). RIVM urges extra fluids, cooling measures, and planning activities outside the hottest hours. Water stress and dike risk: With drought and record-low river levels, volunteers are inspecting Dutch peat dikes for cracks and weak spots after exceptionally dry weather, warning that dried peat can lose strength and allow seepage. Rhine shipping hit: The Rhine has reached the lowest levels yet at the German-Dutch border, forcing barges to sail lighter and pushing up transport costs. Oil spill threat near protected waters: Satellite images reviewed by AP show a sanctioned tanker leaking crude off Oman near the Hallaniyat Islands; experts warn rough monsoon seas could worsen the spill if the ship breaks apart.
