Alarming earthquake warning issued
The U.S. Embassy in Ankara has issued an earthquake advisory for its citizens in Turkey. The embassy provided detailed instructions on what to do before, during, and after a potential earthquake.
While discussions regarding the expected earthquake across Turkey, particularly in Istanbul, continue, recent earthquakes in Balıkesir and Kütahya have caused public concern. Following the tremors experienced in recent days, statements regarding earthquake preparedness have begun to be closely followed.
OFFICIAL ANNOUNCEMENT FROM THE U.S. EMBASSY
During this period, the U.S. Embassy in Ankara shared an advisory prioritizing the safety of U.S. citizens in Turkey. In a statement released through its official social media accounts, the embassy included a comprehensive earthquake guide.
The shared guide outlines steps to be taken before, during, and after a tremor under separate headings. The statement emphasizes the importance of not panicking and reminds citizens, in particular, of the importance of finding a safe space inside a building during a tremor.
“DROP, COVER, AND HOLD ON” METHOD REITERATED
