Earthquakes with magnitudes of 4.8, 4.9 and 5.2 struck Adana and Osmaniye on Oct. 4. Earth scientist Prof. Dr. Naci Görür said the tremors were an effect of the Feb. 6 earthquakes and that Adana was at risk.
Görür said the earthquakes occurred on the East Anatolian Fault and the Savrun Fault Zone. According to Disaster and Emergency Management Authority (AFAD) data, a second tremor in Adana was recorded 17 minutes after the first, and a magnitude-4.4 aftershock followed the magnitude-5.2 earthquake in Osmaniye.
