Magnitude 7.7 in central turkey

Turkey will receive lots of help coming from all horizons, Ukraine and Russia, Iran, Azerbaijan, the E.U. the U.S. and many more.

My question is... Will Syria who is submitted to a catastrophe of equal dimensions, Aleppo got badly hit, Who will help Syria? Will their neighbours come to the rescue??? How about from further away?

Politics can be so damaging even in the worst of cases.

I’ve seen several statements from Turkey specifically asking for international aide. Has Syria done the same? Not a rhetorical question.

earth is just getting rid of parasitic humans

Alright, I take back my initial suggestion that it was somehow 'staged'- this looks pretty epic.

Hi, Chilean here. We eat earthquakes during breakfast, so we know a lot about them.

Your analysis is not entirely accurate. Absolute magnitude is just a factor in earthquake destruction, there are several others in place: how deep it was, terrain conditions (see Mexico D.F. as an example of a terrible place), construction code, population density, wave acceleration, movement direction and timing, among others.

This Turkish earthquake was very strong, very shallow, with extreme acceleration (almost 2 meters / 7 feets of displacement every second) and right under a highly populated area. Also, construction code is not as strict as Japanese or Chilean ones.

Besides, it looks like the entire fault is crumbling. The 7.5 aftershock was way to the north from the original fracture. Maybe the entire fault will soon collapse into an even bigger quake (and by "soon" I mean within hours or a couple of days).

Let's hope it doesn't, because it would be almost apocalyptic in that area.

Oh shit

To me, it is starting to look like they just synchronized a bunch of building demolitions at once and maybe created a small quake to go along with it (so those in the region could say they felt it, etc.).

I mean, all the live shots are close-ups, of collapsed buildings and the footage of the quake showing structures collapsing sure look like controlled det. (in the footprint).

It is right at the Syrian border too, so not many international orgs. will be keen on wanting to set-up shop there- Imagine the payout Turkey is about to receive for 'aid'- (their payoff for cooperation?).

Just brainstorming is all- watch the footage with the mind 'could this be faked' (if the answer is yes, then it probably was is all I'm saying- you KNOW authentic devastation/destruction/combat when you see it)

I don't know if you realize, but the effects of the earthquake has spanned at least 250 miles (Malatya to Antakya), the footage show is from many towns in between those 250 miles, personally I recognize a few of the places having been there, I do recognize a lot more in Hatay though as I go there at least once a month.

Faking almost synchronized controlled demolitions (and a shit ton of them) over the span of 250 miles, would be a difficult task if not to say almost impossible (though nothing is impossible)

I think you should probably watch more videos, and familiarize yourself with Turkey's geography

You’re not wrong…but at the same time, situations like this also bring out the absolute best in humanity. Levels of care, kindness, and cooperation that are so very rare. I hope all affected areas get what they need…especially highly trained search and rescue teams immediately dispatched.

Turkey better leave Finland and Sweden into NATO or it will be having more "unfortunately natural" earthquakes...

Looks like another 7.7 just happened now.

Those poor people. :-(

Do you have a source?

Still not as bad as the destruction Putin the war criminal caused in Ukraine, Chechnya, and Syria.
