> An unidentified person has written “HELP” and “SOS” on the dried bed of Switzerland’s Lake Brenets. Four months of exceptionally low rainfall have left the popular tourist site almost entirely without water. The drought has already exceeded the extreme dry spell of 2018 and could surpass 1906 levels if forecast rain does not arrive.
