Professor Dr. Osman Bektaş, an earthquake scientist, addressed the possibility of a major tsunami in Istanbul following an earthquake. He dismissed the idea, attributing it to the region's earthquake activity not occurring as a single major event but rather in pieces over time. Bektaş noted that while small tsunami waves are possible, the risk of a large tsunami is low. He also criticized artificial intelligence-generated videos exaggerating disaster risks.
