Frank Hoogerbeets, who works for the Netherlands-based Solar System Geometry Survey (SSGEOS), has been tracking seismic activity in Pakistan and has detected a significant surge in electric activity along the Chaman fault lines.
Hoogerbeets has a track record of predicting earthquakes, having correctly predicted the recent earthquakes in Turkey and Syria. He is using a combination of data from satellite imagery and atmospheric observations to make his predictions.
While there is no guarantee that Hoogerbeets' prediction will be correct, it is important to be prepared for the possibility of a major earthquake in Pakistan. The country is located in a seismically active region and has experienced several devastating earthquakes in recent years.
The Pakistan Meteorological Department (PMD) has not yet issued any official warnings about a potential earthquake, but they are monitoring the situation closely. The PMD has advised people to be prepared for the possibility of an earthquake and to take precautions to protect themselves and their families.
Here are some things that people in Pakistan can do to prepare for a major earthquake:
- Make a plan for what to do in the event of an earthquake. This should include knowing where to go for shelter and how to contact family and friends.
- Secure your home and belongings. This includes anchoring furniture to walls and securing heavy objects.
- Have a first-aid kit and other emergency supplies on hand.
- Know where the nearest safe places are in your community.
If an earthquake does occur, it is important to stay calm and follow the instructions of local authorities.
