00:00I'm Shu. Peace be upon you and God's mercy first.
00:05We apologize.
00:07Yesterday we weren't able to come on as we should have,
00:10but honestly it was a serious health issue.
00:13The pain, thank God, has eased a bit.
00:17I'm feeling a little better now,
00:20so I'm coming on directly to continue my work.
00:24And of course, thank you all for your prayers.
00:27I tried to read all of them.
00:30Thank you for this kindness and this sympathy.
00:35And may God's mercy be upon her, O Lord.
00:37We advise her and peace be upon you all.
00:40People from Algeria understood me
00:42and are inquiring about the clear and somewhat strong earthquake that hit Algeria.
00:49Last night, the tremor had a magnitude of 3.8
00:53on the Richter scale near a village or city called Benimoche.
00:58So I would be in space, right?
01:00And this is spot in northern Algeria.
01:02What's clear about this 3.8 earthquake
01:06is that this particular area has been hit over the past few days
01:11and has been tremors over the past few days.
01:14In the past period, there were somewhat mild earthquakes,
01:19around 3.1 or 3.2,
01:22but this time it was a magnitude 3.8 on the Richter scale.
01:27But its depth was about 50 meters below the surface of the Earth.
01:32And this shallow depth is always the case for these earthquakes.
01:37It makes me a bit uneasy,
01:39but hopefully there's nothing to worry about
01:42because we're actually at the end.
01:46We've almost reached the end of the lunar month,
01:48at the end of the month of Rabia Lawal.
01:51So usually earthquakes and tremors increase in frequency, size, and type.
01:57And actually, in northern Algeria,
02:00seismic energy is constantly being released.
02:03The earthquake struck at 11.35 p.m. last night,
02:09Wednesday, Algeria time.
02:11It was felt in the Gaya, Siddurk, Bizu, El Qasar,
02:17and other cities close to the epicenter of this strong earthquake.
02:21And always, when the earthquake is at a shallow depth,
02:26its impact is limited,
02:29meaning when the depth is shallow only,
02:32the cities or villages that are very close
02:36to the epicenter of this earthquake
02:38are the ones most affected by it.
02:42All right.
02:43The important question is,
02:45should we be worried?
02:47Should our people in Algeria be concerned about this earthquake?
02:52I don't think the situation is worth worrying about
02:55because, God willing, it will pass safely.
02:59It's within the natural framework
03:02or the natural release of energy
03:04that's present beneath the crust of the earth.
03:07But as I always say,
03:08the situation needs to be monitored.
03:11This area must be under observation.
03:14I love it.
03:14Hello.
03:15I mean, let me keep monitoring.
03:16I always record such areas,
03:19note them down,
03:21and track when and exactly where the tremors happen.
03:24And I keep an eye on the area.
03:26Keep an eye on the nearby areas.
03:28Is this area being monitored?
03:31And when something requires concern,
03:34it will definitely come up,
03:36and you'll know about it.
03:37That was...
03:38I'm Ahmad al-Darawi
03:40and you're watching the show Shusayr Kings.
