The remarks should be made for Haicheng earthquake and Lice earthquake disasters.
The Haicheng earthquake disaster is famous for  the successful evacuation of a potentially affected population before a devastating earthquake. The Lice earthquake disaster gave a huge impact on Turkish district of Lice. Many strong aftershocks followed the main shock, causing the collapse of already partly damaged homes, and keeping the surviving residents quite frightened (USGS).
