Bible already gave very clear warnings

These last days earth will be more frequent and intense

Antakya was known as Antioch.

In the Book of Acts, Chapter 11:26, the disciples were firstly called as Christians in Antioch. St Paul went to Antioch to preach to the Jews and Gentiles/ the Greeks (the citizens of the Roman Empire then) and there was no Islam yet.

Following the destruction of the Second Temple by the Titus from the Romans around 70 AD, the Jews were basically scattered all over those places ( Caesarea, Cyprus, Corinth...Phoenicia.).

In verse 27, it said "During this time some prophets came down from Jerusalem to Antioch." The prophets from Jerusalem travelled to Antioch.

Two thousand years later, today Antioch was destroyed...lasting ruins. Many or thousands of buildings collapsed causing many people being killed from the aftermath of the earthquakes.

The remnant that did not turn to Christianity during the time of St Paul, totaling less than 10 families, before these earthquakes have been moved away entirely away from Antakya.

...finished.

It was Byzantine Empire being defeated by the Ottoman.

The modern leader, Mustafa Kamel Artaturk himself a an Albanian and not the Turks from the Central Asia. The language is Turks but the people in Turkey today are from various other places instead of Central Asia.

Religion has more gory stories and nothing to be proud.

Nicholas,

Those locations as mentioned are common with earthquakes. The people can do the reconstruction/redevelopment from the ruins although it will take many years.
