Red solid stars are the hypocenter of M7.8 earthquake and the epicenter of M7.5 earthquake, respectively. Red lines show the fault surface rupture trace of the M7.8 event, and the red open rectangular is the 3D fault plane. The blue circles are the M > 3.0 aftershocks from February 6 to March 31, 2023. Gray circles are the background seismicity for M > 3.0 earthquakes from January 2000 to February 2023. The purple lines are the Dead Sea Transform, and the orange lines are the surface rupture of M7.5 event. The lower right panel illustrates the study area. The map was generated by the GMT v.4.3.1 (https://www.generic-mapping-tools.org/).
