Eight earthquakes were recorded in neighboring Romania over four days, according to Romania’s National Institute for Earth Physics Research and Development (INCDFP).
According to the INCDFP, the last three tremors occurred on the night of October 25-26, with an interval of just under an hour. The tremors were recorded in the Vrancea seismic zone, one of the most active earthquake-prone areas in Romania.
The Vrancea seismic zone is located at a depth of about 100 km, so its earthquakes are felt over a large area. In particular, according to a number of reports, the tremors could be felt in Moldova, Bulgaria, Serbia, and southern Ukraine, including the area around the city of Odessa.
The Vrancea zone is known as one of the most dangerous intra-continental seismic areas in Europe, with deep tremors occurring there with magnitudes above 7.0. In such conditions, regional monitoring authorities will intensify their observation and inform the population about the likelihood of repeated events.
