Strong new aftershocks could occur in central Turkey, reported on Twitter Scientific Institute Solar System Geometry Survey (SSGEOS).
“Stronger aftershocks could occur in or near central Turkey in the coming days,” the report said.
SSGEOS member Frank Hougerbits predicted a powerful earthquake in Turkey and Syria that occurred on February 6 and claimed over 44,000 lives. After that, a series of aftershocks swept the countries – repeated shocks of lesser power.
Turkish seismologist Naji Gerur, who also warned of possible tremors on February 6, tweeted writing that due to earthquakes in Eastern Anatolia and the Dead Sea, “a very large tension was released, energy, a significant part of which was transferred to the surrounding faults”, which caused earthquakes to land throughout the region.
“I think over time their strength and frequency will decrease. Please don’t worry too much and don’t believe fake news,” he wrote on March 1.
