Residents of the Antalya region were informed that they are not threatened by earthquakes

The head of the Society of Geophysicists of Antalya, Ishan Emran Kaptanoglu, addressed the residents of the region, saying that they should not worry. "The recent earthquakes were caused by the displacement of the Eurasian and Arabian plates (on the border of the Arabian Plate). The Eurasian plate pushes the Arabian Plate south along the East Anatolian Fault. Antalya and Alanya can only be affected by the African plate, which will not be able to push the Eurasian plate in any way," the engineer explained.
