"A strong magnitude 5.8 earthquake occurred in the Eastern Mediterranean near the coast of Greece in the early morning at 6.18 am local time (Europe/Athens GMT +3). The quake had a very shallow depth of 12.8 km (8 mi) and was felt over a large region. The shallow depth of the quake caused it to be felt more strongly near the epicenter than a deeper quake of similar magnitude would." VD
