00:00Good evening and welcome to a new investigation of your show, Wisaya.
00:03Today is Sunday the 20th, 9-20-26, September 20th, 2026, and the 9th in the Arabic calendar of Rabi
00:13al-Thani.
00:141,448 AHA, very strong earthquake, measuring 6.3 or 6.4 on the Richter scale,
00:22has just struck the earthquake's epicenter was in Papua New Guinea at a depth of 105 kilometers below the Earth's
00:31surface.
00:32As you can see in front of you on the screen, a very strong earthquake struck precisely about a quarter
00:39of an hour ago,
00:40specifically around 7.13 in Papua New Guinea time.
00:463.00 p.m., this Sunday evening, Papua New Guinea time, Pacific time, naturally.
00:53And of course, the 6.3 magnitude is just an initial reading.
00:58The earthquake's strength could also be upgraded in the next few minutes.
01:04Another thing I wanted to mention is that I've noticed a very clear seismic cluster
01:10near Greece, Turkey, and I've circled this area where seismic clustering has been happening
01:21over the past two days, by the way, and every single day, earthquakes and tremors are striking.
01:29Greece, southern Greece, and even northern Greece,
01:33as well as near some of the Turkish islands in the Aegean and Mediterranean seas.
01:39It is rare for us to see such a high concentration of tremors in this area.
01:46I mean, the latest one was just a short while ago, about a quarter of an hour ago,
01:51with a magnitude of 3.6 on the Richter scale, striking Greece.
01:56At almost the same time, a very strong earthquake hit Papua New Guinea.
02:04The important thing I noticed was that there was a very large number of earthquakes
02:10with a magnitude over 5 on the Richter scale in the past few hours.
02:18I mean, I recorded at least 10 earthquakes with magnitudes over 5 on the Richter scale
02:23that struck within the last 15 hours.
02:27So, within 15 hours, we had 10 earthquakes with magnitudes over 5 on the Richter scale,
02:37striking different regions around the world.
02:41This is a clear increase of subscribe to the channel
02:44in the amount of seismic energy within the pulse and seismic zones in the Earth.
02:51And this gives us a clear indicator
02:53that another very powerful or destructive earthquake
02:56could potentially strike within the Earth.
03:01Where, unfortunately, we can't know.
03:04That's all from me.
03:06Subscribe.

03:09Take care and stay safe.
