On Baku TV, a premiere screening of a new episode of the analytical program Aktual gündəm ("Current Agenda") took place.

The experts focused on the recent earthquake in Istanbul, as well as the alarming seismological situation in Azerbaijan.

The key discussion questions touched on the most critical aspects: has the long-awaited release of accumulated seismic energy occurred, or is this merely a harbinger of more destructive events? How dangerous is the current surge in seismic activity in Azerbaijan? Is there a real threat of a powerful earthquake in the country's capital?

Comprehensive answers to these vital questions were provided by the country's leading experts: Director General of the Republican Seismological Center Gurban Yetirmishli, Head of the Department of Ecogeography at the Institute of Geography Anvar Aliyev, and Director of the Earthquake Engineering Research Center Azer Gasymzade.
