The 7.8 magnitude earthquake that hit Turkey and northern Syria on February 6 has caused immense devastation—thousands of buildings have collapsed and over 16,000 people have lost their lives—but some on social media are claiming that it has actually caused the entire country of Turkey to move by 10 feet.

"The earthquake in Turkey was so strong, that in relation to Syria, Ankara moved 10 feet," wrote one user on Twitter. "Heartbreaking footage of the Turkey earthquake devastation. It was such a severe subduction earthquake that it moved the entire country of Turkey 10 feet," wrote another.
