Turkiye should be prepared for more aftershocks to come in the area. Lot of experts are saying the tectonics are still not fully settled in the area.
Experts are telling so, there will be major earthquakes within 20 years and there won't be any further for several hundred years.

Istanbul
Hakkari-Bingol-Malatya
Adana

Also one expected in Aegean region but i forgot anyway.

The ones(fault lines) in the Aegean cannot produce much above 7.0 magnitude because of their length. There are countless fault lines running parallel in the Aegean. The region makes more frequent but less powerful quakes. Crete could possibly produce earthquakes up to 9.0 magnitudes because it's a subduction zone.


(Paraphrasing Celal Şengör)

+ Two parts of the North Anatolian fault line hasn't broken yet. One is the vicinity of Karlıova(An earthquake with 7.2 magnitude is expected) the other is the one under Sea of Marmara(Istanbul earthquake) .

The South Ege is currently one of the safest regions in Turkiye in terms of earthquake risk. And this area is now receiving an incredible amount of foreign settlement.

The earthquake risk map of Turkiye, which is currently shown on all TV channels, is an old data that has almost no validity.

People are selling their lands in the earthquake zone and leaving town.

The Turkish earthquake zone is exactly the zone of the Israeli Yinon-Plan from 1982.

The Yinon Plan refers to an article published in February 1982 in the Hebrew journal Kivunim ("Directions") entitled 'A Strategy for Israel in the 1980s'. The article was penned by Oded Yinon, reputedly a former advisor to Ariel Sharon, a former senior official with the Israeli Foreign Ministry and journalist for The Jerusalem Post.

Its also the zone of the declared Greater Middle East Project of George Bush (including a Kurdish state and Great-Armenia).

The Greater Middle East, is a political term, introduced in March 2004 in a paper by the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace as a part of the U.S. administration's preparatory work for the Group of Eight summit of June 2004, denoting a vaguely defined region called the "Arab world" together with Afghanistan, Iran, Israel, Turkey, and several other neighbouring countries that have cultural ties. The paper presented a proposal for sweeping change in the way the West deals with the Middle East and North Africa. Previously, by Adam Garfinkle of the Foreign Policy Research Institute, the Greater Middle East had been defined as the MENA region together with Central Asia and the Caucasus.

The "greater middle east" can go and eat a bag of dicks.

I think the government should intervene and buy back the lands for pennies on the dollar

Istanbul will also be another interesting earthquake. People are focused on Istanbul but Tekirdag may also receive major damage (similar to earlier earthquake happening in Maras, but Hatay was also affected)

Tekirdag is also home to industry, agriculture-related industry, and factories. Feeding primarily Istanbul.

Istanbul earthquake is a bigger national security threat than pkk, pyd, isis, cyprus, blue homeland etc. combined. As a nation, it will bring us to our knees. I wish it doesn't happen till we're ready but I have no hope, honestly.

With the decision of the Council of Ministers dated October 27, 2008 and numbered 2008/4273, it has been decided that foreigners cannot acquire immovable property and limited real rights in our provinces of Hatay, Kilis and Mardin for reasons of public interest and security.

The Eastern Black Sea (the country's most important water reservoir in the 22nd century), the entire Aegean coast from Saros to the Teke peninsula, the provinces of Adana, Gaziantep, Şırnak, Van, Ağrı, Kars: just as in Hatay, Kilis and Mardin, the sale to foreigners should be prohibited by law. In Istanbul, Ankara and Antalya, the sale of real estate over a certain square meter should be stopped or the reciprocity criterion should be reintroduced.

Permanent migration of diaspora Turkic peoples to the country (as in the case of the settlement of Meskhetian Turks) should be supported by state policy. TOKI should allocate a certain number of houses each year for the resettlement of Turks exiled from their homeland.

The contractor himslef explains that construction of buildings with isolators increases the construction cost by a mere 10-15%.

All buildings in the entire Marmara region needs to be investigated and categorized if they could withstand an earthquake or not also the new ones.

Istanbul population needs to decrease, therefore we need to relocate Industry but also invest in other provinces, it's totally nuts that even after 1999 we continue investing mostly in Istanbul as the economic/industrial centre of the country.

Türkiye is a large country, people need to spread a little bit to towns in the suburbans.

Thats the problem we have Istanbul gets nearly everything.

Thats why Politicians are so focused on investing in Istanbul because they believe if they lose Istanbul they lose the country.

We are back to square one again. Ataturk more in a way founded Ankara not just to resist the Greeks but also to break the power of Istanbul.

If only he achieved it because once again after his death his successors were all focused on Istanbul.

Power of Istanbul needs to be broken.

Turkiye is the most unequal country. When people were so focused on Istanbul getting hit with an earthquake instead Hatay, Gaziantep and Kahramaras gets hit.

Since Istanbul is the cultural, economic and even the Political hub of Turkiye a Earthquake along with a Tsunami would make the country collapse.

My home in Gaziantep was determined to be "orta hasarlı" but it's not listed on e-Devlet. I was able to learn the fate of my building at the muhtarlık and they said that "orta hasarlı" buildings are not listed on e-Devlet, they are announced at the muhtarlık.

Does anyone know why these buildings are not listed on e-Devlet?

You're wrong. First my region does get earthquakes:

All the other things that you have just said are BS with no value or proof.
Your great Germany was as bad as Turkiye when it flooded in 2021

Even Japan cant resist the power of natural.
