Akis Tselentis, PhD in Geophysics and director of the Geodynamic Institute, said: “We just had 4.7R 5km WNW of Thermos, 21km from Messolonghi. Due to a small focal depth, it became quite noticeable in Patras. We are watching it. It’s still too early for final assessments, although it doesn’t bother me, I still want to see the post-seismic sequence which should be enough due to the very small focal depth».
