On the north of the Greek island of Greek on May 22, an earthquake of magnitude 6.1 occurred. Authorities announced a warning about the tsunami, but ensured that a large depth reduced the risk. Ekathimerini’s publication reported it.
It is noted that the pushing took place at 6:19 in the morning (local time) 58 kilometers northern -east of Elunda in the northern -east of Crete. According to preliminary estimates, its depth reached 60 kilometers.
According to the Fire Service, there were no appeals for help and report on serious injuries, but the earthquake was felt throughout the Crete and nearby islands.
Emergency care services were moved to a state of increasing Crete readiness after an earthquake, which was also felt in Turkey and Israel.
As the leader of the earthquake organization and protection planning (OASP), the eftimis lakes, are noted, the focal depth of the earthquake makes the tsunami unlikely.
“There are no reasons for remembering; we monitor the situation to assess it further. Usually these types of earthquakes are not large harbingers -they are usually the main event, and we usually do not see a rich pillow -following aphthershoks. That is, there are few aftshoks, and they are small in magnitude.
