Recently, mysterious explosion sounds heard in Bursa have sparked curiosity among the public. What could be the source of these sounds?

In previous years, especially in 2021, similar sounds in western Bursa were determined to be caused by F-16 fighter jets breaking the sound barrier. However, the recent sounds in Gürsu and Kestel were attributed to hail cannons.

Hail cannons are a system used by farmers to prevent hail damage. These devices aim to prevent hail formation by sending high sound waves into the clouds.

However, these loud noises, especially at night, have caused panic among the public. Complaints about noise pollution and insomnia have increased, and the environmental impact of such interventions is also a topic of discussion.

The local community is calling for clearer information and regulation regarding the use of hail cannons. Experts have differing opinions on the effectiveness and environmental impacts of this system.
