Earthquakes are tremors and vibrations of the earth's surface that occur as a result of unexpected displacements and ruptures in the earth's crust or in the upper mantle and are transmitted over long distances in the form of spring vibrations. These vibrations are considered the main destructive force on the earth's surface, leading to injury and death.
Most injuries result from the collapse of buildings and debris after an earthquake. The first shock is usually accompanied by a large roar. The first shock may be followed by others.
The population's response to an earthquake begins with its occurrence after the first tremors. People who feel tremors or receive a warning signal about the occurrence of an earthquake must act in accordance with the information received and recommendations developed in advance, which should reflect the sequence of actions of each person.
