Yeah I'm afraid this is going to have one helluva a death count. Lots of pictures of Hotels and Apartment buildings completely demolished that would have been occupied. This is going to be really bad.

 

[Sgt_Nick_Fury]

It's a very beautiful city normally.

 

[Franklin Pierce]

18,000 died in Turkey earthquakes in 1999. We all live on a hostile planet.

 

[Sgt_Nick_Fury]

People would have likely been in bed too.

 

[Sgt_Nick_Fury]

Looks like a bad fire too. Oil pipeline? That would be bad.

 

[OrangeTsar]

 

[Sgt_Nick_Fury]

Looks like natural gas pipeline wow that's a lot of gas to burn sustained.

 

[Sgt_Nick_Fury]

Another real problem is many that got out of their buildings are now in freezing cold and snow, and not able to return to their homes which are no longer safe.

 

[FLVOL_79]

I wonder how many who died had the covid vaccine?!

This is beyond devastating for that region. The videos I’ve seen this morning show cities in rubble and people trapped underneath. I cannot imagine.

Well it's freezing cold we know the gas pipeline was damaged or destroyed that likely served several cities , many buildings are now unsafe to re-enter, and much of the region is a contested civil war zone across the border in Syria. Have a feeling the greater death toll is just starting.

I am so blessed

I thought the same driving my kid to school today. My biggest issue was frost on the windshield.

Memphis and St louis could happen any day.

 

[Sgt_Nick_Fury]

Yeah a second major quake.

 

[volinbham]

[Sgt_Nick_Fury]

Yeah a second major quake.

Half way through this is hard to watch.

 

[Burhead]

Memphis and St louis could happen any day.

Yep first thing I heard when I moved to West TN.

 

[Toucan Sam]

Seen this on the news this morning. It's horrific. I wonder how many innocent people are still trapped in buildings and in rubble?

Well many will die from Hypothermia long before anyone can get to them. The people outside and "safe" are trapped in subzero weather, with gas lines and electricity down. so ya know even outside and safe your a bit trapped right now there.
