Seismologist Alerts Istanbul Earthquake Risk

Experts in Turkey, especially earthquake scientist Osman Bektas, anticipate an increased risk of a strong earthquake occurring in the Sea of Marmara region and Istanbul. This is due to heightened seismic activity and recent minor tremors recorded around the tectonic fault lines. The experts suggest that the potential earthquake could surpass 7 magnitude, with possibilities of the collapse and damage of hundreds of thousands of homes or injury to millions, particularly given previous earthquakes in the area that resulted in hundreds of casualties and injuries. They advise that the city remains highly prepared and that necessary measures be taken to confront scenarios of strong quakes, as data indicates signs of the potential for a major earthquake that could cause extensive damage in Istanbul and lead to significant human and material losses.
