Numerous shocks have followed the main and following the earthquake repeat on October 26 and 30; which has definitely razed the buildings to the ground; a slit has been created; a fault slope of more than 15 km along Mount Vettore from Arquata to To Ussita (MC) where it is evident that the soil collapses; from 20 to 70 cm according to places; which affected the whole area.
