________________________________________________________________________________________________________

A very strong Magnitude 7.8 earthquake has struck southern Turkey at a shallow depth of only 24.1km. Shaking from the quake is described as “violent” and serious damage, injuries, and deaths are expected.
The quake took place at 8:17 PM eastern US time, which is 01:17 UTC; the middle of the night in Turkey.
Power outages are reported. Roads are also reported cut off. Bridges are reported to have either fallen, or are so skewed they cannot be used.
The scalable map below shows the area. Users can zoom-in to see VERY nearby communities near the epicenter. Reports are now saying entire private homes have collapsed. https://www.google.com/maps/embed?pb=!1m17!1m12!1m3!1d147436.24792053722!2d36.91989770950909!3d37.19677879248419!2m3!1f0!2f0!3f0!3m2!1i1024!2i768!4f13.1!3m2!1m1!2zMzfCsDEyJzAzLjYiTiAzN8KwMDAnMDAuMCJF!5e1!3m2!1sen!2sus!4v1675647390397!5m2!1sen!2sus
More info as I get it. . . .
UPDATE 8:39 PM EST —
The US Geological Survey is now saying that “Severe” shaking is reported all the way south into Aleppo, Syria and slightly beyond! The map below shows the “shake reporting:”

UPDATE 8:47 PM EST —
There has now been a Magnitude 6.7 after-shock at relatively the same location.

The city of Gaziantep, which is pretty close to the epicenter, has a population of over two million.
Reports now coming in claiming the quake was felt into Lebanon and into much of Israel. It was felt in the Sharon region in Israel at a magnitude of 4.7, with people shaken out of their beds!
VIDEO COMING IN 9:07 PM EST —
I think this one is going to be really bad . . . video coming in now, showing collapsed buildings:
MORE VIDEO – 9:10 PM EST —

HISTORICAL TIDBIT:
The largest earthquake in Turkey since 1950 was of a magnitude 7.6 and occurred on August 17, 1999. (Tonight’s quake was bigger)
More than 17,100 people died, more than 50,000 were injured, and up to 500,000 were homeless. The reports state, that the high death toll was mainly because of the poor construction materials.”
UPDATE 9:28 PM EST —
Reports coming in from small towns near the quake. In the town of Hatay, yolklar village, reports now saying FIFTY PERCENT of the private homes have COLLAPSED! People are trapped or crushed to deaths while sleeping in their beds.
SYRIA TOO!

Reports of catastrophic damage continue to grow across southern Turkey and northern Syria following magnitude 7.8 earthquake.
UPDATE 9:54 PM EST —
Syria’s state media reported that some buildings collapsed in the northern city of Aleppo and the central city of Hama.
Why So Powerful?
Many are wondering why this quake was so horrifyingly powerful and felt over such a wide area? It’s because it happened at the junction of two MAJOR fault lines:

UPDATE 10:03 PM EST – TURKEY ASKING FOR INTERNATIONAL HELP!
Şanlıurfa City mayor: “16 buildings collapsed, 5 deaths” [as of now]
Osmaniye governor: “34 buildings collapsed, 5 deaths” [so far]
Adana mayor: “two buildings, 14-storey and 17-storey have collapsed”
Süleyman Soylu, Turkish Interior Minister: “We’re calling for international assistance”
DEATHS ALREADY . . .
At least 10 people confirmed dead after Turkey quake. 5 in Osmaniye, 5 in Şanlıurfa
SYRIA REPORTS GETTING WORSE
Utterly horrific reports coming from all across NW #Syria – every town I’ve heard from has dozens of buildings flattened. People stuck under the rubble. Any many, many casualties — including children. SyriaCivilDefense will be heroes tonight, working amid heavy rain & sleet.
UPDATE 10:13 PM EST —
Due to the Earthquake a Gas Pipeline near the City of Kahramanmaraş in Southern Turkey has Exploded and is burning out of control with Emergency Services completely overwhelmed with Rescue Operations.
UPDATE 10:29 PM EST —
Security video from a store shows the shaking last MORE THAN 1,:36Sec before camera went out!

GEOLOGISTS:
Experts are now observing that Aftershocks are taking place over a very strange WIDE area. Very different than what they have seen in similar scale quakes worldwide.
It is now known, not speculated, the 6.5 and 6.4 “aftershocks” were definitely on a different faults than the main one of the 7.4 to 7.8
Therefore further large aftershocks on all 3 faults are now expected!
Prof. Dr. Naci Görür, Geoscientist: “I’m calling out to those who may concern, check the dams in the region”
UPDATE 10:39 PM EST —
Interior Minister Süleyman Soylu: We have passed the 4th Alert Level in Turkey.
note: 4th alert level means they are requesting International Aid as the damage is more than they expected or can handle by themselves.
The situation in southern Turkey and northern Syria is so bad, people are stuck under the collapsed buildings.
Communications are down. People are scared standing in the streets and open parks while its snowing.
SYRIA UPDATE:
Critical situation in Afrin, Northern Syria . Governor Erdinc Yilmaz also said that 34 buildings were destroyed in the province.
TRAPPED IN RUBBLE; CELL PHONE FOR HELP!
People who are trapped in the rubble, but still alive, are using their cell phones to try to get help:

Malatya governor: “Initial assessment: 130 buildings collapsed, 100+ injuries, 3 bodies were taken out of the ruins, S&R continues”
FROM THE UN IN NYC:
According to the UN’s World Food Program automated disaster response feed, approximately 3,000,000 people live within 50km of the epicenter. In the context of prior incidents, this is likely to be a major catastrophe for those in the immediate vicinity.
Yeşilyurt (Malatya) mayor: “350.000 people live Yeşilyurt. Old buildings have collapsed. a hospital and a hotel collapsed. between 8 to 20 apartments collapsed. Traffic jam is terrible, people are outside, we need construction/extraction vehicles”
Oh, no . . .
The USGS Pager computes # of people exposed to different levels of shaking. 4.5 million received Intensity VII or VIII. Intensity VII can collapse traditional mideast construction.

ITALY ISSUES TSUNAMI ALERT FOR MEDITERRANEAN SEA!
Tsunami alert: possible waves arriving on the Italian coast
Seismic event between Turkey and Syria. Move away from coastal areas. Update February 6 at 3:15

Based on data processed by the Tsunami Alert Center ( CAT ) of the Ingv, The Civil Protection Department has issued an alert for possible tsunami waves arriving on the Italian coast following the earthquake of magnitude 7.9 with an epicenter between Turkey and Syria of the hours 02:17.
It is recommended to move away from the coastal areas, to reach the higher neighboring area and to follow the indications of the local authorities.
The tsunami consists of a series of sea waves produced by the rapid movement of a large mass of water. The alert indicates the possibility of a real danger for people who are close to the coast, especially if in low, or even lower, areas than sea level. Even a wave of only 0.5 meters in height can generate dangerous floods and very strong currents.
The Civil Protection Department, in conjunction with INGV, Ispra and the SNPC structures, will continue to provide all available updates on the evolution of the event.
UPDATE 11:38 PM EST —
Aftershocks are continuing BUT . . . are moving decidedly northeast. It’s almost as though the fault line is expanding itself.
Casualty figures from Turkey quake so far, confirmed by our newsroom:
TURKEY Malatya: 23 dead, 420 injured Şanlıurfa: 17 dead, 67 injured Osmaniye: 7 dead Diyarbakır: 6 dead, 79 injured
SYRIA 86 dead, 200 injured
Praise God!

UPDATE 5:37 AM EST (MONDAY)–
SECOND MASSIVE QUAKE: M7.5
After my update at 11:38 last night, I couldn’t keep up anymore. The bad news was just pouring in so ferociously. I went to sleep, or at least tried to. Tossed and turned all night.
The mass-media is finally covering this, and they have vastly more resources than I do. I will have to leave the rest to them now. I did my job: I got the news first, and got it right.
This is a bad one. Historic by any measure. Before I went to sleep last night, I prayed for the people over there. God is gonna have to take care of this and strengthen the people involved. This is so beyond us, and our frail capabilities, it’s frightening.
Updating (for me) was “done” as far as I was concerned but moments ago, my Earthquake Alert triggered . . . again. There has just been ANOTHER gigantic quake in Turkey, Magnitude 7.5, shown on the map below. It seems Turkey is literally being torn apart.
Here’s a map showing the latest Magnitude 7.5 quake:

The clouds were omnious, erie. Before things
started shaking. How strange the clouds were.
With lights in the clouds and on the horizon.

Maybe the same people who built these buildings built the world trade centers…never seen buildings implode like that. Having lived overseas for 22 years I can attest to very poor building codes compared to here…of course we know the real drive for code is permit revenue but at least something good comes out of it.

Holy Fucking Shit!
I live in quake country, and this is THE LONGEST Quake I ever witnessed…..the security camera in the store. I couldn’t believe how long it went, and it just kept on going.
I think this is much bigger than a 7.5M, maybe closer to a 9M.
And yes, the “prophetic” post about an imminent 7.5M quake, is VERY SUSPICIOUS!!!
Yes, they do have machines that can trigger earthquakes. Looks like that is what happened in this case.
Israel is planning to start a war in the Middle East, knocking out their neighbors with a series of massive quakes, will render Israel’s neighbors unable to come to Iran’s aid. So the way is clear now for Israel to attack Iran.
Any reports about Damascus???
It is prophesied in the bible that some day it will be reduced to rubble. I always thought it got nuked, but perhaps it was/will just be a massive quake.
The burden of Damascus. Behold, Damascus is taken away from being a city, and it shall be a ruinous heap. Isaiah 17:1
+1 #Geo solar link — ell2023-02-06 21:00
I am thinking that the person watches Suspicious Observers or Nikkianna Jones. It may be tied to the fact that as of last week, the earth is now spinning faster than its molten core and may be stopping entirely. Usually it spins faster than the earth does. I would guess that the person who posted a warning, has been watching the science.

Its bad enough wondering if your country

In Matthew 24 Jesus gives some signs of His coming and the end of the age… two of those have to deal with “wars” and “earthquakes”.
Naysayers will speak out and proclaim we’ve always had wars and earthquakes. True. But in my mind what I think Jesus was getting at is that towards the end, the INTENSITY and FREQUENCY of both would be so magnified the difference between “normal” and the “end of age” would be apparent to those who “have eyes to see and ears to hear”.
Are we seeing? Are we listening to what’s going on in the world? Like a woman giving birth, the contractions are becoming more frequent and severe as the time approaches for His return! Get ready and get your house in order as a new age will soon be birthed.

If your friend is sincere in their query, there are many online resources explaining the prophecies that had to be fulfilled before the return of the Messiah…the most notable, the reestablishment of the nation of Israel – in one day – which did occur in May 1948. The link is a discussion regarding this subject.
-4 #bible has nothing to do with that — Flyfisher012023-02-06 18:11
it is repeated all throughout the bible- in red letters at that. god speaking directly to all of us… ‘I AM with you always’
god also directly warns you in mathew 24:24
when someone comes claiming they are god, asking them for you to worship them, dont.
who are you waiting to ‘return’ if he never left you ? and what if many ‘return’ ? which one is the one you will believe? thats why god warns you, not to believe in any of them, in his words, not mine.
the story of the judas betrayal of jesus (which wasnt a betrayal at all) EXPLAINS IT ALL.
this is the the most important scripture in the holy books. i will repeat it again – just to antagonise the anti-semites here – judas is the unsung hero of the holy books. if you know how , not just to read, the bible, but to actually comprehend what they are trying to tell you with this story of the ‘betrayal’ of jesus- and why it was written as such, then all of you would get the meaning, and it will open the holy books up to the profound truth.
and the best part, they are the actual words from jesus himself, not mine. its as clear as day, what he told all of us, but all you here still refuse to believe jesus. i cant help you more than that.
+1 #RE: bible has nothing to do with that — 389rivka@gmail.com2023-02-06 19:02
Believers with the understanding of the Trinity accept that the Holy Spirit, of course, is here always. The reference is in regards to the return of Jesus, the Messiah, returning in the flesh.
Simple program for complicated people.
Those that challenge/deny the Biblical teachings of the Triune God cannot and will not understand or accept. So be it. Like pre/mid/post discussions…agree to disagree . We will all get the definitive answer when we are home.
