Israeli Forces Prepare for Syrian Fault Earthquake
The Israeli newspaper "Maariv" has revealed extensive preparations being carried out by the Israeli army to confront the scenario of a devastating earthquake along the Syrian-African fault. It is expected that such an event would result in significant human casualties and widespread building collapses, especially in cities near seismic activity zones. Israel has identified ten cities most vulnerable to severe damage in the event of a strong earthquake, including Kiryat Shmona, Tiberias, and Eilat, due to their proximity to the fault and the prevalence of old, earthquake-weak buildings. The Ministry of Health and the military are conducting drills to simulate responses from medical and civilian teams, aiming to ensure the continuity of care in case of infrastructure damage. Estimates predict hundreds of deaths and thousands of injuries. These preparations are linked to the centennial anniversary of a deadly earthquake that occurred in 1927, but there is no scientific means to precisely determine when a major quake might strike. The focus remains on strengthening rescue capabilities and infrastructure readiness.
