A recent study conducted at the bottom of the Dead Sea revealed that a potentially devastating earthquake measured 6.5 on the Richter Scale is expected to hit our region in the coming years.
The study, conducted by researchers from Tel Aviv University and published in the Science Advances journal, revealed that earthquakes of such magnitude tend to hit the region once every 130 to 150 years, though a smaller gap of only a few decades is also possible.
