WORLD, Feb. 28 (YPA) – Dutch researcher and seismologist Frank Hoogerbeets and  Iraqi geologist Saleh Mohammed Awad  warned  about unbecoming earthquake in the fist week of March ( on March 8).

“A convergence of critical planetary geometry around 2 and 5 March may result in large to very large seismic activity, possibly even a mega-thrust earthquake around 3-4 March and/or 6-7 March,” Frank Hoogerbeets said on his Facebook page.

As for the Iraqi scientist, he said that “there is a possibility of an earthquake based on physical calculations, and it is expected on March 8, but it will be less devastating than the earthquake in Turkey and Syria, which occurred on February 6.”

He explained that  the Prediction  of the earthquakes is based on a set of indicators and calculations, and accordingly advice is directed, an earthquake occurs in a specific place, and the concerned authorities can take it or not.

“The Anatolian Plate is weak and dangerous, and earthquakes began to spread after the devastating earthquake in Turkey, and the plate is exposed to more than 200 tremors related to devastating earthquakes,” he elaborated.

He added: “There is a spread of earthquakes on the Eastern Anatolian Plate,  and the position of the moon on March 8, will be the same as on February 6, but the next earthquake will causes less casualties due to the distance of the planets Venus, Jupiter and Mars.”
