00:00Welcome to a new episode of your show, What's Happening?
00:04Today is Thursday, September 10th, 2020, and today is also the 28th of Rabi al-Awal.
00:16I just made a very special episode for the members about a disaster that, unfortunately,
00:23the world and the Arab region might face, but it's hard for me to talk about it.
00:28Here, I'll leave you a picture of the episode anyway.
00:31Also, I'll leave you the link to become a member and the link to join the channel membership as well.
00:37I'll leave them for you in the first comment.
00:43This morning, we saw an earthquake hit near Algeria, and then just a few hours later,
00:48we saw an earthquake hit Albania, and people felt it clearly.
00:51And the last one hit Spain, and now an earthquake is hitting the Levant region.
00:58And specifically, about half an hour ago, an earthquake hit Lebanon, near the city of Tyre.
01:10With a magnitude of 4.1 on the Richter scale, I think it's very close to the area of Zarraria.
01:20And close to the city of Tyre.
01:25So, a 4.1 earthquake struck at a depth of 35 kilometers below the surface of the Earth.
01:33That was around the local time in Lebanon and Syria, meaning the Levant time zone.
01:41It was around 9.25 p.m. today.
01:48Of course, today is Thursday.
01:51Based on our monitoring, the earthquake just hit, and many of our people in Lebanon felt it.
01:57They felt it in the cities of Saur and Saida.
02:03Also, I expect the entire South Governorate in general.
02:08And the Governorate also clearly felt this earthquake.
02:13And even according to reports from some of our people in Syria, some felt this earthquake, some but not everyone.
02:20And specifically, we're talking about the Damascus and rural Damascus governors.
02:25We're hoping to get confirmation that the earthquake was felt.
02:28If anyone is in Damascus or rural Damascus or even in the areas I mentioned in Lebanon, write to us
02:34directly in the comments.
02:35We're definitely at the end of the Lunar Hijri month.
02:38And it's known that earthquakes and tremors increase in size and intensity and in type.
02:47So it's possible that this is the reason for the earthquake happening in Lebanon now.
02:52There are some who say, according to some leaks, that a huge tunnel was blown up in Lebanon.
03:00Huge warehouses and a massive tunnel were blown up in Lebanon, and they were targeted by Israel.
03:06We are working on confirming this information, and we'll keep you updated as soon as possible.
03:12This is Ahmad Al-Baram with you, host of the show Shusayar.
