00:00good evening and welcome welcome to a new episode of your show wasa r26 today is also the fifth of
00:09rabi al-tan a very clear series of earthquakes struck arab and western countries today
00:20let me start with the strongest earthquake that hit the arab region at dawn today
00:25an earthquake with a magnitude of 4.4.7 as we said it struck at dawn today wednesday
00:35specifically hitting the gulf of aiden halfway between yemen and somalia frankly it hit the
00:41beginning of the gulf of aiden or let me say south of the gulf of aiden as we said for
00:46we said 4.7
00:51halfway between the yemeni town or city of sayhut and also the city of bozaso
00:57the somali city apparently some felt it in bo bozaso and some in sayhut
01:02and we know this region too the area already suffers from problems and conflicts
01:11this earthquake a cause of what is happening there according to what well maybe but as far
01:18as i can clearly see the earthquake struck directly on the fault line four points 4.7 struck directly
01:26on the fault is there something reactivating this fault is this earthquake activity something we
01:31should keep monitoring yes it wasn't just somalia or yemen from our arab countries either there was
01:37actually a distinct earthquake indeed it struck algeria at almost the same time at dawn today wednesday
01:48the earthquake struck with a magnitude of 3.5 on the richter scale at the shallow depth of about
01:55four kilometers beneath the earth's surface it struck at dawn today or this morning at one o'clock
02:03a.m sharp a.m sharp wednesday morning near an algerian town located in northern algeria called azazga
02:10i believe azazga belongs to the province of bijaya algeria in any case it was felt in akbu bab ezwa
02:20azazga
02:21busgan and naturally it was also felt in uh uh bijaya the strange thing is that almost at the exact
02:31same time
02:32it struck or actually not at the same time but a few hours after the earthquake that hit algeria there
02:38was a new earthquake that just struck spain a little while ago measuring about 3.1 on the richter scale
02:48at
02:48a very very shallow depth of less than a kilometer around 500 meters what is alarming however is that it
02:57struck again struck again this time the city of granada granada the very same city that around 20 days
03:04ago experienced a series of earthquakes and tremors that caused destruction i wouldn't say massive but
03:11there was destruction prinenara spain today we witnessed another tremor in this city especially coming just
03:21hours after another earthquake in algeria that we had previously discussed so it was a magnitude 3.1
03:29tremor in granada and they felt it both in granada and in malaga spain also quite noticeably and as
03:37always the tremors in granada are alarming and require further monitoring however europe wasn't only hit
03:44by earthquakes and tremors in spain italy also suffered around the same time or not exactly
03:50at the same time i mean the spain tremor is the new one about an hour ago at 10 a
03:56.m to be precise
04:00three hours earlier around seven o'clock a.m i believe there were three earthquakes that struck
04:08italy almost simultaneously hitting southern italy specifically near the city of catanzaro
04:16yes there is clear seismic pressure in the mediterranean region whether in italy spain or even
04:25a clear earthquake in the southern red sea and the far south of the gulf of hayden what could happen
04:32in the coming hours could there be developments we will definitely keep you updated as things unfold
