The seismic activity in the earthquake continues at an unabated rate, as there have been rapid earthquakes in the evening. Sunday morning there was a new magnitude 4.1 Richter at 08:48, while 11 more earthquakes had preceded within an hour and a half in the same area. According to the Geodynamic Institute’s analysis, the 4.1-degree earthquake of the Richter scale had a focal depth of 13.5 km and a focus of 21 km southwest of Arkesin Amorgos. CORVERSE Over 3.4 Richter earthquakes were preceded in the sea area between Santorini and Amorgos. The largest was a magnitude of 3.7 Richter and noted at 7:29. The well-known seismologist noted: “We do not know exactly what fault it is but there is a persistent sequence and there is no way that there will be a stronger earthquake. There is currently a caution and some measures have been proposed for the safety of the island.” He himself, speaking to ERT, noted: “The area hosts many faults and we cannot rule out the possibility of a larger earthquake. ” On the morning of Sunday three new sick earthquakes occurred open to Kythnos, open to Amorgos and 30 km off Sounios. Meanwhile, after a joint meeting of the Standing Scientific Committee for the Evaluation of Earthquake Risk and Reduction of Earthquake Risk and the Standing Scientific Monitoring Committee for the Hellenic Volcanic Arc of OASP, a series of measures was decided. Earthquakes until Sunday morning: After examination of the data so far, it was unanimously stated by all members of the Committees that: Seismic activity within the caldera came into remission. The last 24 hours are recorded in the area of Andros, between Thera and Amorgos, an increased seismic sequence with a maximum size of 4.3. This seismic activity is not related to volcanic activity, as it is due to underwater faults with a BA-ND address. The Commission shall propose the following preventive measures: The schools remain closed on Monday 03/02/2025. Citizens should avoid large gatherings in enclosed spaces. Avoid access and stay at the ports of Ammoudi and Old Port Fira. If appropriate there will be such a meeting again.
