Greek Island Rocked by Multiple Earthquakes
Thousands Leave Santorini as Greek Island Hit by More Than 300 Earthquakes Santorini earthquake: Greek island rocked by largest tremor yet after thousands flee AP 5 FEB 2025 ![]() ![]() The increase in seismic activity around the Aegean tourist island of Santorini is causing concern among officials, who have shuttered schools across the island and warned locals to drain their pools The Greek island of Santorini has been rocked by a 5.4 scale earthquake - the biggest yet to strike the popular holiday destination after a series of more than 200 tremors were detected in recent days. Schools had already been closed with residents were being warned to avoid ports and drain swimming pools in anticipation of the main quake, which hit this afternoon. More than 6,000 residents have left the island in recent days, according to local media. I work on the island, I have been a resident for years. But today? nobody was expecting this to happen, what is happening now on the island is incredible, Julian Sinanaj, a 35-year-old resident said. Precautions were also ordered on several nearby Aegean Sea islands - all popular summer vacation destinations - after more than 200 undersea earthquakes were recorded in the area over the past three days. These measures are precautionary, and authorities will remain vigilant, Civil Protection Minister Vasilis Kikilias said late Sunday following an emergency government meeting in Athens. We urge citizens to strictly adhere to safety recommendations to minimize risk. ![]() While Greek experts say the quakes, measuring up to magnitude 4.8, are not linked to Santorinis volcano, they acknowledge that the pattern of seismic activity is cause for concern. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bsy6NJrYzrE |
