The study reported that the heat mortality 'trigger temperature' is 32°C for Alicante, a threshold reached on 17% of days per year.

Notes on verification

Two independent Spanish news outlets report identical figures (32°C trigger temperature, 17% of days/year for Alicante), both citing the same ISCIII/Environmental Research study led by Díaz and Linares. Figures are consistent across sources with no contradictions found. [tier=bronze indep_score=0.525 clusters=2 claim_tier=notable | framework convergence=single on The 2019 Díaz et al.
