Felt-intensity map
Loading the map…
Estimated intensity from a calibrated intensity model, adjusted by public reports. An estimate, not a measurement. The same information is in the table "Intensity by locality" below.
The estimated intensity in Israel is below II (not felt), so there is no coloured layer.
The epicentre is far away, outside the map: Turkey. The arrow on the map shows the direction.
