3. AL-JABAL AL-AKHDAR EAST OF LIBYA.<br />
Ò The other destructive earthquake<br />
was at Old Marje City (Al-Jabal<br />
Al-Akhdar ). In 1963, a<br />
magnitude of 5.8 earthquake<br />
occurred <strong>in</strong> the region. The city<br />
was damaged completely<br />
because of the site effects<br />
(alluvial soils and the shallow<br />
water table ). About 600 peoples<br />
reported killed.
