What 3 other types of destructive events that can be triggered by earthquakes?

Landslides: Earthquakes can cause the ground to shake, leading to slopes becoming unstable and triggering landslides. Tsunamis: Underwater earthquakes can displace large volumes of water, creating powerful tsunamis that can cause widespread devastation along coastlines. Liquefaction: During an earthquake, the ground can become saturated with water, leading to liquefaction where the soil temporarily loses strength and behaves like a liquid, causing buildings and infrastructure to sink or tilt.
