2023年土耳其卡赫拉曼马拉什暨叙利亚地震

One of the costliest disasters of the twenty-first century, the magnitude 7.8 earthquake that struck near Kahramanmaraş in February 2023 killed 56,697 people across southern Turkey and northern Syria and injured more than 119,000. Damage reached roughly 42.9 billion dollars, with some 542,000 buildings destroyed or badly damaged. The shallow rupture broke faults of the East Anatolian system, where the Anatolian block is squeezed westward between converging plates. Striking before dawn in winter, it flattened whole districts of modern apartment blocks and became the deadliest earthquake in modern Turkish history.
