Firefighter Rajesh Dabhas, 43, pulls a water pipe as he tries to extinguish a fire in some textile shops at a market area in the old quarters of Delhi, India, June 13, 2024. Summer is a particularly busy time for Delhi Fire Services. The searing heat and lack of moisture in the air speed up the combustibility of materials, said IMD scientist Soma Sen Roy. "It's not some light work. It's like risking death," said firefighter Rajesh Dabhas. REUTERS/Adnan Abidi
