“What we are saying now is a really strong, really absolute method of earthquakes,” she said.
In 1999, a 7.6-magnitude upheaval killed 17,000 people in Turkey; and in 2016, some-more than 241 people died in a 6.2-magnitude upheaval in executive Italy.

“The lethal 1977-1979 array was followed by a still duration where new seismic appetite was accumulating,” combined Dr Mihaljevic.
“But after 40 years of comparatively ease seismicity, clever quakes seem to be back.”
After 40 years of comparatively calm…strong quakes seem to be back
