NACİ GÖRÜR WARNED

Making a statement on his social media account (X) following the Adana earthquake, seismologist Naci Görür pointed to the February 6 earthquakes centered in Kahramanmaraş and made the following statement:

"A 4.8 magnitude earthquake occurred near Kozan/Mahyalar in Adana and on the Saimbeyli Fault Zone. This earthquake was followed by two more aftershocks greater than 4. The earthquake is not directly related to the East Anatolian Fault (DAF), but it may have transferred energy from it. It can be said that this is an effect of the movements on February 6, 2023."
