Interior Minister Süleyman Soylu announced that a nationwide earthquake drill would be held on the 23rd anniversary of the Düzce Earthquake. With this exercise, it was tested whether different systems across the country would work in an integrated manner. The exercise was held at 18:57, the time of the earthquake.

Some people complained of loneliness

Some people panic

Some people felt excluded

Some people stated that they were very unfamiliar with the situation.

Some people were able to participate in the exercise.
