Türkiye is no stranger to devastating earthquakes, with the most recent tragedy in 2023 resulting in tens of thousands of fatalities.
On Wednesday, a strong earthquake hit beneath the Sea of Marmara, causing tremors that were felt across the region, including in Türkiye’s largest city, Istanbul.
The country’s Disaster and Emergency Authority reported two quakes occurring after midday local time, with the more powerful one measuring 6.2 in magnitude. This was the strongest seismic activity to affect the city, home to over 15 million residents, in several years.
Fortunately, there were no immediate reports of damage or injuries. Nevertheless, videos circulating online have captured the unsettling impact of the quake from distances up to 80 km away.
In some footage, interior cameras depict lanterns swaying and items falling from shelves as the surroundings tremble.
