00:00Good evening and welcome to the new episode of your show, What's Happening?
00:05Today is the 12th, 17th, 28th, 26th, 17th of August, 2026, and also today is the 4th of Rabia.
00:16First, an earthquake struck one of the Maghreb countries about an hour or an hour and a half ago.
00:22This earthquake specifically hit Tunisia, as we mentioned about an hour and a half ago.
00:30At the time in Tunisia, it was about 10 minutes to 5 in the afternoon.
00:40In the earthquake struck with a magnitude of 3.3 on the Richter scale, it hit the Tunisian coast,
00:47specifically at a depth of 10 kilometers below sea level.
00:51The epicenter was near the coast of the city of Sfax.
00:56Sfax, Tunisia, is the source.
00:58If anyone is watching us from the city of Sfax in Tunisia, let us know if you felt this earthquake.
01:07But some people, I mean, some people contacted me from Sfax and told me they felt this earthquake,
01:12but certainly not everyone felt this tremor, because it's still a somewhat moderate tremor.
01:183.3, so it's natural, but not everyone felt it.
01:21Only some people did.
01:22So, what is the cause of this earthquake?
01:27The reason is the ongoing eruption of Mount Etna in the island of Sicily.
01:32And we said that this eruption affects, in one way or another, all the surrounding areas.
01:39Whether it's Italy, we've seen the earthquakes that hit Italy in the past few days, or even its effect on
01:45Tunisia.
01:46And this is reflected in the earthquake that struck near the Tunisian coast overlooking the Mediterranean Sea,
01:53specifically near Sfax, and it could later also be reflected in tremors or earthquakes in other areas.
02:00It could also hit Algeria.
02:02Along with this, there was actually a very strong earthquake as well, and this time it lasted longer.
02:08It struck in the North Pacific, near Russia, near the Russian coasts,
02:13specifically the coasts of the Russian Kamchatka Island, with a magnitude of 5.9 on the Richter scale,
02:20and these coasts are always active.
02:23Questions are being raised about it.
02:28Some people say that the reason for the very strong or even destructive earthquakes that strike near the coasts of
02:35Kamchatka Island
02:36is nuclear tests carried out by the Russian Federation, or by Russia in general.
02:42The earthquake that struck the coasts of Kamchatka was clearly felt in the Russian city of Yelizovo,
02:51as well as in the Russian city of Petropavlovs.
02:55They felt it clearly.
02:56So it could indeed be because of nuclear tests that Russia is conducting on the coasts of this Russian peninsula,
03:05and it could also be because of the volcanoes in the area.
03:09There is a volcano, Klerkevskoy, which is currently erupting on this island,
03:15and from what I've been following, it was active during the past few hours
03:20and released a volcanic cloud that reached a height of 10 kilometers.
03:26As you can see on the screen right now,
03:29so both possibilities are valid,
03:32either actual nuclear tests,
03:34or because of the massive eruption of several volcanoes there,
03:38including the Russian creature Skoy volcano.
03:41Anyway, that's all for now.
03:42I'm with you, Ahmar.
03:43The drama is as expected.
03:45The show, Shosahib Blow, is fine.
