An earthquake measuring 2.5 on the Richter scale was detected near Spata, east of Athens, but no seismic data has confirmed the sensation reported by eyewitnesses.
An earthquake measuring 2.5 on the Richter scale occurred west of Rafina, near Spata, at approximately 5:13 PM. The epicenter was located about 1 kilometer northeast of Spata, affecting areas in northeastern Attica. Eyewitnesses have reported feeling tremors, although this has yet to be corroborated by seismic data.
The report came from a communication with the seismological station of the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, highlighting the local impact of the earthquake in densely populated regions. Despite the fact that the tremor was mild, the feeling of shaking underscores the area's vulnerability to seismic activity.
Currently, the European-Mediterranean Seismological Centre (EMSC) communicated via Twitter about the situation, noting that they have not confirmed the reports through seismic data. As the situation develops, further updates will likely clarify the earthquake's impact and the residents' responses in the affected regions.
