Turkey shaken by earthquake: tsunami declaration from Italy
As Turkey started the day with a mess, a remarkable statement came from Italy…
The Italian authorities made a statement about the earthquake that occurred one after another in Turkey and caused destruction in many cities, especially in Kahramanmaraş, Diyarbakır, Hatay and Gaziantep.
The Italian media carried the earthquake in their headlines.
After the earthquake, the Italian authorities warned of a tsunami in southern Italy, but as time passed, they lowered the tsunami warning level. In the statement, it was stated that there was no possibility of a tsunami.
In the Italian statement, it was indicated that waves could arise in the south of the country, while it was noted that the wavelengths would not exceed 15 centimeters. People living in Puglia, Calabria and Sicily in southern Italy were also warned to “stay away from the beaches.” After the earthquake, train services stopped for a short time in these regions, and after the tsunami alert was lifted, it was noted that services started to continue.
