“The necessary instructions have been given to residents and authorities in the area – I think the sizes will remain at this level,” Mr. Lekkas said.
Professor of Geology and President of OASP Mr. Efthymios Lekkas Speaking to ERTNEWS about the ongoing seismic vibrations to the north Euboea.
“It is the third earthquake over 4 Richter in the last 24 hours of the seismic activity. As I had pointed out from the beginning we would have such earthquakes in the order of 4 and 5 Richter for the next few days. We say this because we had the same image in previous seismic excavations. The tectonic regime of the area is such that it gives us this image. That is, earthquakes from 4 to 5 Richter that evolve within three and five days. I do not think there is a particular cause of concern but we are watching the evolution of the phenomenon. The necessary instructions have been given to residents and authorities in the area. I think that the sizes will remain at this level » Mr. Lekkas emphasized.
It is recalled that at 03:23 there was a new 4.5 -magnitude earthquake on the Richter scale in northern Evia.
According to the revised solution by the Athens Geodynamic Institute, the focus of the earthquake was found three kilometers east of Prokopios Evia and had a focal depth of 16.9 km.
