Kamchatka "swam" to the southeast: a strong earthquake has moved the peninsula in the Russian Federation (photo)
Maximum shifts were observed in the southern part of the peninsula-they can be compared to horizontal displacements after the 2011 earthquake in the Japanese Northwestern Thohok region. 9 points have been recognized as the strongest in Japan over the last 100 years. After underground shocks, a destructive tsunami occurred, through which many inhabitants of the northeast prefectures were killed. The Academy also noted that the city of Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky element affected a little weaker.
However, it also shifted somewhat to the southeast. Scientists added that the full macro -mic effect was observed in North Kuril. It is worth noting that on the night of August 5 off the coast of Kamchatka recorded another earthquake of magnitude 6. 0. Klyuchevsky volcano almost continuously throws a bench to a height of 500 m and ashes - 8 km. We will remind, on August 4 on Kamchatka "woke up" eight volcanoes after an earthquake of magnitude 8. 8 points on July 30.
