Perhaps I am expressing them here for the first time. Tunceli is in danger. Although no one talks about that region today, there is a danger.

Axar.az reports that Naji Gorur, a famous Turkish geologist and professor at Istanbul Technical University, said this while giving statements about the seismic map of Turkiye.

"Between Erzincan and Karliova there is the Yediova fault. This subterranean thrust last occurred in 1790, it has the potential to create seismic activity every 250 years. The day is getting closer. We are especially waiting for the place where Pulimur is, between Erzincan and Karliova. This benefit if seismic activity wakes up, a 7.4-magnitude earthquake can occur. It is not far from Tunceli. It is also surrounded by a seismically active fault from the west. The Yedisu fault is considered particularly dangerous. It is very close to time, no joke. We cannot say anything concrete about the exact time. We don't know the recurrence period," the geologist said.
