Suddenly
last Thursday, three major earthquakes hit the Mindanao region of the
Philippine Islands. These earthquakes occurred on July 23 and were
registered at M7.3, M7.6, and M 7.4. They all hit within an interval
of 1 hour and 7 minutes.
Why this sudden burst of seismic energy occurred just where and when it
did will take some time to determine. Needless to say, however, it
does support the interpretation that the Earth is becoming more
seismically active these days. |
