Two earthquakes measuring 3.4 and 3 on Richter scale shook Al-Shaqa in Saudi Arabia, the latest in consecutive quakes that hit the area over the last few weeks, the National Network for Seismological Monitoring, an affiliate of the Saudi Geological Survey, said today adding that tens of minor aftershocks were also registered during the last 24 hours. In a statement, the authority said thermal measures, radon gas and carob-dioxide condensations and ground fractures widening were reported as of reassuring rates. However, the statement said the situation will hopefully return to a state of stability soon.
