Abstract. On 6 February 2023, Turkiye was hit by a sequence of very strong and destructiveearthquakes that affected 11 populated cities close to the ruptured fault line. The damage was very extensive in the region so that it was even to understand the orderof magnitude of the huge devastation and loss caused by this earthquake sequence.Many national and international research teams have been in the affected areas fromthe first day on, trying to make field observations from all aspects and get the per- ishable field data to use for the purpose of seismic loss mitigation for future poten-tial events. The observations reveal the fact that it will take a long time for the coun-try to recover from the adverse effects of this event, but we should also start the takemeasures immediately to mitigate the potential losses from future earthquakes.
