Our monitoring service identified a second report from the Kandilli Oservatory and Earthquake Research Institute in Istanbul (KOERI-RETMC) which listed the quake at magnitude 4.2 as well. A third agency, the European-Mediterranean Seismological Centre (EMSC), reported the same quake at magnitude 3.8.
Based on the preliminary seismic data, the quake should not have caused any significant damage, but was probably felt by many people as light vibration in the area of the epicenter.
Weak shaking might have been felt in Nikia (pop. 48) located 12 km from the epicenter, Kardamena (pop. 1,900) 35 km away, Kéfalos (pop. 2,500) 35 km away, and Antimacheia (pop. 2,300) 38 km away.
Other towns or cities near the epicenter where the quake might have been felt as very weak shaking include Kos (pop. 19,200) located 49 km from the epicenter, Kalymnos (pop. 12,300) 56 km away, Turgutreis (pop. 16,500) 62 km away, Bodrum (pop. 39,300) 68 km away, and Rhodes (pop. 56,100) 96 km away.
