The quake, centered near Yalova&#8217;s \u00c7\u0131narc\u0131k district, was discussed by experts on NTV. AFAD (Disaster and Emergency Management Authority) reported the earthquake&#8217;s epicenter was 8.52 kilometers offshore \u00c7\u0131narc\u0131k, at a depth of 11.18 kilometers.<\/p>\n<p>Earthquake expert Prof. Dr. Okan T\u00fcys\u00fcz, speaking on NTV, stated the tremor is unrelated to the anticipated major Istanbul earthquake, but serves as a reminder. He clarified that the earthquake, occurring in the middle of the \u00c7\u0131narc\u0131k trough, is likely from a small fault and not associated with the main fault affecting Istanbul.<\/p>\n<p>Prof. Dr. \u015e\u00fckr\u00fc Ersoy also commented, noting this earthquake\u2019s location differs from previous ones in South Marmara and Gemlik Bay. He emphasized the significance of this region&#8217;s seismic activity and the expectation of a larger earthquake along the North Anatolian Fault.<\/p><div id=\"briti-247381125\" class=\"briti-icerik\" style=\"margin-top: 5px;margin-bottom: 5px;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/piaryum.com\/services\/\" aria-label=\"piaryum banner\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/by-tv.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Gemini_Generated_Image_g5yqr1g5yqr1g5yq.jpg\" alt=\"\"  width=\"2064\" height=\"1152\"   \/><\/a><\/div>\n<p>Following the earthquake, Interior Minister Ali Yerlikaya announced that AFAD and related teams commenced field scanning operations.
