Seismologists say Friday’s ‘quake was the biggest to affect the region in more than fifty years.
Several parts of western France were shaken on Friday evening by the biggest earthquake to affect the region in a half-century, prompting the evacuation of some 170 people from the town of La Laigne and damaging several buildings across the locale.
The earthquake, which seismologists say registered between 5.2 and 5.8 on the Richter scale, was felt between Rennes in the EU country’s north-west and Bordeaux in the south-west. It occurred at approximately 6:30 pm on Friday.
Several homes, schools and churches were damaged in the rare quake, which is the strongest to have hit the region since 1972. Earthquakes with a magnitude above five are rare in France, with the most recent one occurring in November 2019.
At least two aftershocks were recorded on Saturday, leading to concerns that buildings damaged in the initial ‘quake could become unstable.
Authorities have indicated that there were no fatalities in the various affected towns. Two people received injuries as a result of the earthquake in the town of Deux-Sevres. Fallen electricity cables in the neighboring town of Charente-Maritime left around 1,100 people without power.
“It is an unusual earthquake on our territory,” Prime Minister Elisabeth Borne said while on a visit in the north of the country. “I would like to express my solidarity with the populations who have been worried.”
Borne added that authorities will “obviously ensure” that people affected by the earthquake will have access to rehousing should it be required.
France’s interior minister Gerald Darmanin said, meanwhile, that the country’s government will activate natural-disaster recognition measures to swiftly identify structural damage to buildings which might require immediate attention from engineers.
In La Laigne, the local fire department warned that the church had become “completely unusable.” A school has also been closed as a precaution, and a local government official said that the majority of homes in the town’s center had been damaged to some extent by the earthquake.
It’s those underground Reptilian Lizard People again…must be having a fire-fight with the Parisian Sewer Workers in close quarters!
OR-
Maybe the underground bunkers are being razed by pro-LePenne militias, thus denying the Euro Elite their shelters when the hyper-sonic nukes start to fly!
Did America crank up their HAARP again? Hmmm what’s France doing that the Americans don’t like?
Hey Daily Telegraph how about doing a piece on the speech of former Ratheon contractor Eric Heckler who said the christchurch earthquakes were caused by American equipment at Antarctica.

Macron went to China. That little old woman Ursula Leyen went with him. Xi Jinping sent her home through the common folks’ airport departure area. (Love that Chinese subtlety.) I don’t actually think the woman knew where she was. Macron has been a bit of a bitch to the rest of the EU lately as well, not wanting to send his stuff to the Ukraine, and arguing about things like money and ethical behaviour instead of just bending over.
For sure HAARP send him this little pressie, just as a reminder.
