Uite ce zice USGS-ul. Cutremurul din 1986 a fost ciudat atat prin prisma lipsei raportarii de mari pagube materiale sau pierderi de vieti omenesti, dar si pagubele majore din zona Chisinau.
Locuitorii din SE Moldovei (sudul judetului Vaslui, Galati tind sa aiba amintiri mai vii cu privire la cutremurul din 86 decat cel din 77 sau sa le puna la egalitate). Probabil ca au fost si niste probleme crustale ce au accentuat pagubele pe directia Focsani-Chisinau
UG 30 21 28 35.4 45.547 N 26.316 E 132 G 6.4 6.9 1.1 554 ROMANIA. Mo=5.6*10**19 Nm (GS). Mo=7.9*10**19 Nm (HRV).
Damage (VIII) in the Focsani-Birlad area, including the collapse of a church. Felt (VII) at Bucharest. Two people killed, 558 injured, and about 55,000 homes damaged, leaving more than 12,500 people homeless in the Kishinev-Kagul area, USSR. Felt (VII) in northern Bulgaria; (V) in the Skopje area,Yugoslavia; (IV) at Simferopol and Kiev, USSR and Belgrade, Yugoslavia; (III) at Moscow, USSR and Titograd, Yugoslavia. Felt throughout central and eastern Hungary. Also felt in Greece, Turkey, southern Italy and eastern Poland. The focal mechanism is well controlled and corresponds to reverse faulting with a moderate strike-slip component.
