Two earthquakes measuring 3.4 and 3 on Richter scale reported by the Saudi Geological Survey
Riyadh, June 26, SPA -- Two earthquakes measuring 3.4 and 3 on
Richter scale shook Al-Shaqa in Saudi Arabia, the latest in
consecutive quakes that hit the area over the last few weeks, the
National Network for Seismological Monitoring, an affiliate of the
Saudi Geological Survey, said today adding that tens of minor
aftershocks were also registered during the last 24 hours.
In a statement, the authority said thermal measures, radon gas and
carob-dioxide condensations and ground fractures widening were
reported as of reassuring rates.
However, the statement said the situation will hopefully return to a
state of stability soon.
