3.7 quake 27 Oct 7:53 am (GMT +3)

An earthquake of magnitude 3.7 occurred in the morning on Wednesday, October 27th, 2021, at 7:53 am local time near Limassol, Lemesos, Cyprus, as reported by the European-Mediterranean Seismological Centre (EMSC).
According to preliminary data, the quake was located at a shallow depth of 20 km. Shallow earthquakes are felt more strongly than deeper ones as they are closer to the surface. 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.
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 3.7 as well.
Towns or cities near the epicenter where the quake might have been felt as very weak shaking include Akrotiri (pop. 710) located 27 km from the epicenter, Limassol (pop. 154,000) 31 km away, Mouttagiaka (pop. 2,800) 34 km away, Kolossi (pop. 3,800) 34 km away, Agios Tychon (pop. 2,200) 34 km away, Ýpsonas (pop. 7,300) 34 km away, Pano Polemidhia (pop. 3,800) 35 km away, and Sotira (pop. 4,400) 42 km away. In Strovolos (pop. 67,900, 83 km away), and Nicosia (pop. 200,500, 86 km away), the quake was probably not felt.
