A strong earthquake shakes the Turkish city of Istanbul | International

A strong earthquake of magnitude 6.2 has shaken Istanbul this Wednesday. The earthquake, which has had at least two replicas, has taken the population to the street, which has escaped from the buildings that have staggered. At the moment, it is unknown if there have been victims and there is also no information on collapsed real estate. After the tremor, mobile phone networks have failed in the first minutes. The earthquake has also felt in the cities of Ankara and Esmirna. According to the German Research Center in Geosciences (GFZ), cited by Reuters, the first tremor had a magnitude of 6.02 and occurred at a depth of 10 km. The Turkish Transport Minister, Abdulkadir Uraloglu, has specified that, according to the first data, “no damage to the railways, roads, airports or subway has been detected”. The head of Interior, Ali Yerlikaya, has confirmed, on the other hand, that his teams have initiated land research. Türkiye celebrates on Wednesday the day of childhood and national sovereignty, a festive day in which, in addition, it is doing good weather. Many inhabitants of Istanbul were already on the street when the first of the at least three bees occurred, a circumstance that may have helped avoid victims. (Last minute news.
