Короткий опис(реферат):
EN: On February 6, 2023 a 7,8 magnitude earthquake lasting 80 seconds struck
the region of northwestern Syria and southern Turkey. A 7,7 magnitude
earthquake followed nine hours later centered 95 km to the northeast from the
first. Earthquakes were followed by more than 1 100 aftershocks.
It was the second-strongest earthquake in Turkey since 1668 and the
deadliest seismic event since 526. By early March 2023, there are more than
55 000 deaths and roughly 120 000 people injured in Turkey and Syria. The
total cost of this earthquake is estimated to be at least 84,1 billion US dollars or
approximately 10 percent of Turkish GDP in 2022.
Such devastating consequences including collapse of the buildings and
mass deaths can be prevented or at least minimized due to modern earthquake
warning systems and revising of building regulations.
