It had an estimated magnitude of 6.7, a maximum felt intensity of X (Extreme) on the Mercalli intensity scale, and caused 320–450 casualties and destroyed 3,500 buildings.Ozden Ali Tolga Erkan Burcak Disaster Management of Turkey from 1509 to 2010 Kaneko Yuka Matsuoka Katsumi Toyoda Toshihisa 2016 Asian Law in Disasters: Toward a Human-Centered Recovery Milton Park, Oxfordshire Routledge 71–95, page 82 978-1-317-39684-0 https://books.google.com/books?id=sQUzDAAAQBAJ 27 September 2021 Tectonic setting The Karlıova region is the location of the triple junction between the boundaries of the Eurasian plate, Anatolian plate and the Arabian plate, the North Anatolian Fault, East Anatolian Fault and the Mus fold and thrust belt, which passes to the east into the Zagros fold and thrust belt. The earthquake occurred at the eastern end of the North Anatolian Fault.Hubert-Ferrari A. King G. van der Woerd J. Villa I., Altunel E. & Armijo R. van Hinsbergen D.J.J., Edwards M.A. and Govers R.
