Al-Qurab Al-‘Iqab Tweet Sparks Debate Before Egypt Quake
Scientific institutions, including the U.S. Geological Survey, have confirmed that it is not possible to accurately predict the time, location, or magnitude of earthquakes before they occur. Any forecasts not based on a proven scientific methodology are considered unreliable. At the same time, a Twitter account called "The Punishment Telescope" generated controversy after posting a message hours before a 5.6 magnitude earthquake struck Egypt, which attributed the event to an unusual movement of the African continent based on interpretations related to solar winds and Earth’s magnetic field lines. The post received widespread reactions, but experts emphasized that there is no scientifically proven link between these phenomena and earthquake prediction. They advise relying on data issued by official scientific institutions.
