ALARMING COMMENT FROM PROF. DR. ÖVGÜN AHMET ERCAN

A few hours after the 4.9 magnitude earthquake that occurred in Sındırgı in the evening hours, a 4.3 magnitude earthquake occurred this time. 

Ercan made an alarming assessment following the new earthquake. 

Övgün Ahmet Ercan used the following expressions:

I am staying on the 5th floor of the Ramada Inn hotel in Tire, İzmir. At midnight at 00:02, the huge hotel standing on the plain shook seriously, making noises. I think there was another aftershock of magnitude M4.5 in Kertil, Sındırgı. I suspect that there is still a large accumulation of tension in this section that has not yet been released.
