The strong seismic vibration brought upset to the inhabitants of the South Aegean islands and in Eastern Crete, where it became particularly noticeable
An earthquake of 6.0 on the Richter scale occurred at 01:51 on Wednesday morning in the maritime area between Kassos and Karpathos.
According to the revised solution by the Geodynamic Institute of the National Observatory of Athens, the focus of the earthquake is located in the 19km NNA marine area and the focal depth is estimated at 62.5 km.
The strong seismic vibration brought upset to the inhabitants of the South Aegean islands and in eastern Crete, where it became particularly noticeable.
Despite the relatively long distance of Heraklion from the focus, the earthquake gave the impression of three waves of “waves” and a sense of at least 15 seconds.
According to the first information there are no reports of damage.
According to OASP President Mr. Efthymi Lekkawho spoke to ERT, “The main feature of this great vibration is that the focal depth is 60 kilometers. This means that the move has reached Kasos and Karpathos and much more in Crete, so according to the first data and with the first descriptions of the inhabitants not having any significant impacts without having a complete picture of course. “
The professor also stressed that “No rich post -seismic activity in the region is expected and this earthquake is not linked to earthquakes in the Cyclades or Turkey.”
