I\u2019m not trying to create fear. This is a warning,\u201d<\/em> insisted the scientist, who works at the Solar System Geometry Survey (SSGEOS).<\/p>\n<p>The head of the Kamchatka branch of the Geophysical Survey of Russia\u2019s Academy of Sciences, Danila Chebrov, has questioned Hoogerbeets\u2019 predictions and described him as an<em> \u201camateur.\u201d<\/em> The connection between the movements of the planets in the solar system and seismic activity on Earth <em>\u201cis rather weak, and it\u2019s problematic to use it as the main prognostic tool,\u201d<\/em> Chebrov explained.<\/p>\n<p>On February 3, Hoogerbeets issued a tweet that read: <em>\u201cSooner or later there will be a magnitude 7.5 earthquake in this region (South-Central Turkey, Jordan, Syria, Lebanon).\u201d <\/em><\/p>\n<p>Three days later, a 7.8 magnitude quake struck T\u00fcrkiye and Syria. The disaster has caused the deaths of more than 50,000 people, with powerful aftershocks continuing in the region to this day.<\/p>\n<p>Dutch seismologist Hoogerbeets has made predictions down the years which didn\u2019t come true. Commenting on his work earlier this month, Susan Hough of the US Geological Survey insisted that no scientist has <em>\u201cever predicted a major earthquake.\u201d<\/em> Hough told NPR that the spot-on forecast for the quakes in T\u00fcrkiye and Syria was just a coincidence. <em>\u201cIt\u2019s the stopped clock that\u2019s right twice a day, basically,\u201d<\/em> she said.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rt.com\/news\/572257-earthquake-prediction-turkey-syria\/\">Source <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Dutch seismologist who accurately forecast the devastating quakes in Turkey and Syria has warned that another major quake is imminent <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":39262,"featured_media":265369,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[61,26],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-265777","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-Commentary","category-Predictions_from_the_past_or_for_the_future"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/265777","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/39262"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=265777"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/265777\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":265778,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/265777\/revisions\/265778"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/265369"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=265777"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=265777"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=265777"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
