The National Observatory of Athens (NOA) reported a magnitude 4.6 quake in Greece near Kissamos, Chania, Crete, only 8 minutes ago. The earthquake hit in the morning on Saturday 3 April 2021 at 9:10 am local time at a shallow depth of 10 km. The exact magnitude, epicenter, and depth of the quake might be revised within the next few hours or minutes as seismologists review data and refine their calculations, or as other agencies issue their report.
