Unutma; öyle de yenileceksin, böyle de yenileceksin. Sabah baskınlarıyla uyanan çocukların, endişeli anne babaların ahına yenileceksin. Sandıktan sana hayalini bile kuramayacağın, tarihe geçecek güçlü bir tokat çıkacak.

Bu yüzden Türkiye'deki kimisi sözüm ona kimisi gerçekten deprem bilimci insanlara deprem ne zaman olacak diye değil, bakanlıklara, inşaat firmalarına, şehir planlamacılarına, AFAD'a bu depreme karşı neler yaptıklarını, ne önlemler aldıklarını sormanızı öneriririm.

Fakat bununla beraber kısa sürede hazırlanan ilksel raporlar gösteriyor ki bu deprem KAF'ın hem Doğu hem Batı ucuna stress biriktirdi.

İstanbul depreminde sorulacak soru ne zaman olacağı ya da olup olmayacağı değil şehrin bu depreme ne kadar hazır olduğudur.

M6.2 earthquake shakes Istanbul It's not the big one... yet.

🧪⚒️

A M6.2 earthquake below the Sea of Marmara shook Istanbul today. While damage in this event was limited, a large earthquake on this fault system is one of the world’s most serious, and most anticipated, seismic disasters.

Turkish police have detained Istanbul Mayor Ekrem Imamoglu, a key opposition figure and rival of President Erdogan, as part of investigations into alleged corruption and terror links.

It is seen as a major escalation in the government’s crackdown on opposition and dissent.
