Over 200 earthquakes off the coast of Santorini, Greece, since Saturday have triggered landslides and panic among residents, leading many to flee the island. Authorities stated the tremors were not linked to volcanic activity, but locals spent nights outdoors in fear of a stronger quake. Schools have been closed until Friday.
Seismologist Manolis Skordilis warned that a 20-kilometer fault, responsible for a 7.3-magnitude quake in 1956, has been activated. Authorities banned access to Ammoudi, Armeni, and the Old Port of Fira due to landslide risks. The government is monitoring the situation closely.
