Istanbul Turkey Earthquake TodayBREAKING: 5.7 Magnitude Earthquake Strikes Istanbul, Turkey – Minor Damage Reported
Istanbul, Turkey – June 10, 2024 – A moderate earthquake with a preliminary magnitude of 5.7 hit Istanbul, Turkey, earlier today, sending tremors across the city and sparking panic among residents. The quake struck at approximately 11:23 AM local time, with its epicenter located in the Marmara Sea, about 20 kilometers south of Istanbul’s coastline, according to Turkey’s Disaster and Emergency Management Authority (AFAD).
Reports of Shaking and Minor Damage
Witnesses reported strong shaking lasting between 15-20 seconds, causing people to evacuate buildings in central districts such as Kadıköy, Beşiktaş, and Fatih. Social media videos showed swaying chandeliers, rattling furniture, and cracked walls in some older buildings. However, no major structural collapses have been reported so far.
Authorities confirmed that emergency teams were dispatched to assess potential damage, particularly in vulnerable areas with older infrastructure. Istanbul Governor Ali Yerlikaya urged citizens to remain calm and avoid using phones unnecessarily to keep communication lines open for emergencies.
No Immediate Reports of Casualties
As of now, there are no confirmed fatalities, though several minor injuries were reported due to falls and panic. Hospitals are on standby, and the Turkish Red Crescent has mobilized response units as a precaution.
Experts Warn of Aftershocks
Seismologists from Istanbul’s Kandilli Observatory warned that aftershocks could follow in the coming hours and days. 'This is a reminder of Istanbul’s high seismic risk,' said Dr. Elif Şen, a leading geophysicist. 'The city must remain prepared for a potential larger event.'
Public Transport Temporarily Halted
As a safety measure, metro and tram services were briefly suspended but have since resumed after inspections. Istanbul’s airports also conducted runway checks but reported no disruptions to flights.
Residents Urged to Stay Vigilant
AFAD has advised citizens to check their homes for damage, secure heavy furniture, and keep emergency kits ready. Istanbul, situated near the North Anatolian Fault, is one of the world’s most earthquake-prone cities, with scientists long warning of a possible major quake in the region.
Updates to follow as more information becomes available.
