Strong earthquake shakes Greece/What to expect next

A strong earthquake measuring 5.2 on the Richter scale occurred shortly before 12:30 midnight on Monday in Evia, with its epicenter in Nea Stira.

The earthquake was particularly felt in Athens. Seismologists are monitoring the situation, trying to determine if it is the main earthquake and to map the evolution of the phenomenon.

OASP President Efthymios Lekkas, Geodynamic Institute Director Vasilis Karastathis and seismologist Gerasimos Papadopoulos, in their statements on Tuesday morning, agreed that an aftershock of up to 4 on the Richter scale is possible and, on the other hand, that Monday's tremor is unlikely to activate another nearby fissure.

After being recorded by the Geodynamic Institute at 12:27, approximately 25 tremors followed until 6 a.m. Tuesday, with the smallest reaching 1.3 on the Richter scale and the largest at 2.8./ CNA
