Sea levels near the port of Iskenderun in southern Turkey rose several meters on Wednesday and residents in some areas were evacuated. This is reported by the TV channel TRT.
Many roads were flooded. Meanwhile, TV experts note that this is a temporary phenomenon that occurs after earthquakes.
However, it is difficult to explain because these types of changes usually accompany seismic tremors that are located under the seabed, and in the case of two strong earthquakes in Turkey, there was no question of an accompanying tsunami. Perhaps the change in sea level had something to do with an underwater landslide that could have occurred as a result of the tremors.
It is also known that earthquakes are sometimes accompanied by the phenomenon of soil dilution. This is due to the ingress of groundwater to the surface due to cracking of the soil.
