TERG 01 – 101102 – 2

FEWW Public Alert

Significant quakes along Kuril–Kamchatka Trench consistent with probability of large earthquake in the region

FIRE-EARTH Forecast: The M6.5, M6.0 earthquakes could be foreshocks to large earthquake(s), measuring magnitude 9.2 (±0.2), that could occur along Kuril–Kamchatka Trench (near Zenkevich Rise) by early next year.

• The latest earthquakes could also unleash “tsunamis of volcanism” throughout Kamchatka Peninsula and along the Kuril Islands.

Hundreds Killed as Massive Tsunami Waves Drown Indonesia’s Palu Beach Following Powerful EQ

KMPH – 092902

About 1,000 people dead or missing following major tsunami that hit Palu beach, Indonesia following M7.5 earthquake

About 400 people were killed, and many more swept away by giant waves after a powerful earthquake and tsunami hit the beach of the city of Palu on the Indonesian island of Sulawesi on Friday.

“The tsunami didn’t come by itself, it dragged cars, logs, houses, it hit everything on land,” spokesman of Indonesia’s disaster mitigation agency BNPB told reporters.

The tsunami struck with a speed of 800 km/h, destroying or causing “extensive” damage to thousands of buildings and public infrastructure along the shoreline and beyond, BNPB reported.
