Hatay’s Divided Olive Grove Haunts Locals Months After Türkiye Earthquakes

Months after the devastating earthquake in Hatay, a significant rift in a 33-decare olive grove continues to unsettle residents. The earthquake in Kahramanmaraş caused extensive damage, including the division of agricultural lands in Altınözü’s Tepehan District. The olive orchard now bears a prominent gap, leaving trees separated by meters. The haunting sight serves as a constant reminder of the earthquake’s impact. Despite the eerie atmosphere, the community perseveres, with some continuing agricultural activities in the vicinity of the rift.
