Will there be a larger earthquake? Naci Görür's commentary on the Amasya earthquake!

Following the 4.6-magnitude earthquake that occurred in the Taşova district of Amasya, a reassuring statement came from Prof. Dr. Naci Görür. Görür stated, "There is nothing to worry about because the energy in this section has largely been released previously. There will not be a larger earthquake. It is a local event."

Sharing his assessments via his social media account, Prof. Dr. Naci Görür provided important information regarding both the details of the earthquake and the status of the fault line. In his statement, Görür included the following remarks:

"A 4.7-magnitude earthquake occurred in Destek-Taşovası, Amasya. The earthquake is on the main branch of the North Anatolian Fault (KAF). There is nothing to worry about because the energy in this section has largely been released previously. There will not be a larger earthquake. It is a local event. With love"
