AI Summary:
A magnitude 5.2 quake struck Santorini on Wednesday evening. On Thursday, two larger tremors jolted the island, each exceeding a magnitude of 4.0. The island, one of Greece’s Cyclades islands in the Aegean Sea, has been experiencing near-constant earthquakes since January 27, 2025. Greece lies in a highly seismically active part of the world, and earthquakes are not rare. Authorities are making preparations in case of an even larger quake. The quakes have not caused injuries or major damage. Between 2011 and 2012, Santorini underwent significant seismic activity due to magma movement beneath the surface. “We cannot exclude the possibility to have an earthquake of around 6.0 on one of the neighbouring faults,” Ganas said. The first scenario is that we are in the middle of a seismic swarm,” he said.
