00:00Welcome to the Men's Show, Peace, Mercy, and Blessings of God be upon you, September 24,
00:062026, and the 22nd of Abiy al-Awal, what?
00:12Honestly, it is very clear that over the past few hours there was a major wave of earthquakes
00:21on the United States of America.
00:26Specifically, there was a large earthquake swarm striking one of the U.S. states.
00:34Specifically, we are talking here about the earthquake swarm that struck the U.S. state
00:41of Alaska, and the strongest earthquake recorded there in the U.S. state of Alaska over the
00:48past few hours was a 6.2 magnitude earthquake on the Richter scale.
00:54And naturally, at a depth of about 50 kilometers below the Earth's surface.
01:01The alarming thing is that 6.2 is a very strong earthquake.
01:06And we are always worried about this region because the state of Alaska is located on the
01:13Pacific Ocean.
01:14Always, this region is extremely dangerous because a strong earthquake there could cause tsunami
01:24waves, reaching many states across the U.S.
01:28areas, especially since this earthquake swarm struck near an island chain called the Aleutian
01:36Islands, which naturally belong to the U.S. state of Alaska.
01:41But why the U.S. state of Alaska?
01:43Before I explain why, keep in mind that the U.S. state of Alaska is actually connected to
01:50a seismic fault line extending to other U.S. states.
01:54So the fear isn't always just about a massive earthquake in Alaska.
02:11As you see in front of you on the screen right now, but why Alaska?
02:15And why does it always strike the state of Alaska?
02:20Just like the state of California, which gets struck as well, which is said to be because
02:25of the San Andreas fault.
02:26But the state of Alaska, by the way, for those who don't know, as much ethnically active regions
02:33in the world, because in this area, specifically near the Aleutian Islands, the Pacific Plate slides
02:42beneath the North American Plate.
02:45And as you know, this area is an extension of the Pacific Ring of Fire.
02:50And we have spoken a lot about what the Pacific Ring of Fire means.
02:55And we said everything connects to the Ring of Fire within the Pacific Ocean.
02:58It is always prone to very massive earthquakes and prone to volcanic activity because originally
03:04the belt extends along a chain of massive volcanoes located in the Pacific Ocean, which
03:12is why we call it the Ring of Fire.
03:14And the chain of volcanoes as well.
03:16These are associated with very powerful earthquakes.
03:20And Alaska in particular, the state of Alaska, and let's say the Aleutian Islands, is a meeting
03:28point for two very dangerous tectonic plates, namely the Pacific Plate, which subducts beneath
03:36the North American Plate.
03:38The earthquake here, as we said, and as I said at the beginning, the highly devastating
03:44earthquake causes tsunami waves that reach and extend eastward toward the rest of the
03:51U.S. state and could even reach Canada.
03:53So let's see in the coming hours.
03:56Will this massive earthquake swarm striking the U.S. state of Alaska end, or will it end
04:02now that the 6.2 magnitude earthquake has struck signaling the end of the swarm?
04:08That was all.
04:09That was all.
04:09I was with you.
04:09I'm Edel Drama Udi, host of the Show Sayer Show.
04:12Stay safe.
