Life inside the Dutch earthquake zone - Gas extraction in the northern Dutch region of Groningen has for years caused earthquakes that have made homes unsafe
By Anna Holligan and Kate Vandy @ BBC News (1 July 2022)

It was meant to end in 2024, but now the war in Ukraine means even that hope is crumbling.
