Injuries after magnitude 6.0 earthquake strikes western Turkey​

Health minister Fahrettin Koca said on Twitter that 35 people in Duzce and nearby provinces had been injured.

AFAD and media reports later updated the number of injured to 50.

Most of the injuries were sustained during the panic after the quake, including from jumping from balconies or windows. One of the injured was in a serious condition, Soylu said.

The quake struck at 4:08am (01:08 GMT) and Turkish media said it was also felt in Istanbul and the capital, Ankara.

Dozens of aftershocks were reported, including one of a magnitude 4.3.

According to USGS an aftershock magnitude 4.5 hit Düzce at 06:50 am local time at very shallow depth of 10 km

Magnitude 5.9 Earthquake Registered Near Russia's Kuril Islands -

PETROPAVLOVSK-KAMCHATSKIY (UrduPoint News / Sputnik - 27th November, 2022) KAMCHATSKIY, November 27 (Sputnik) - A massive 5.9 magnitude earthquake was registered on Sunday in the seismically active area of Russia's Kuril Islands, the geophysical service of the Russian academy of Sciences said.
The earthquake took place at 16:59 local time (04:59 GMT). The epicenter was located 144 kilometers (89.
5 miles) from the town of Severo-Kurilsk at a depth of 73 kilometers.
There is no information about any victims or damage caused by the earthquake. No tsunami alert has been declared.
The Kuril Islands are located in a seismically active zone known as the Ring of Fire, which is regularly affected by powerful earthquakes. On November 5, 1952, a 9.0 magnitude earthquake triggered a huge tsunami that devastated the town of Severo-Kurilsk, leaving over 2,300 people killed.
