3.7 quake 9.2 km south of Izmir, Ä°zmir, Turkey, Jun 14, 2023 8:53 am (GMT +3)

A shallow magnitude 3.7 earthquake was reported in the morning near Izmir, İzmir, Turkey.
According to the National Observatory of Athens (NOA), the quake hit on Wednesday, June 14th, 2023, at 8:53 am local time at a shallow depth of 12.5 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.
A second report was later issued by the citizen-seismograph network of RaspberryShake, which listed it as a magnitude 4.1 earthquake.
Based on the preliminary seismic data, the quake should not have caused any significant damage, but was probably felt by many people as light vibration in the area of the epicenter.
Weak shaking might have been felt in Karabağlar (pop. 458,000) located 5 km from the epicenter, Menderes (pop. 22,000) 9 km away, and Izmir (pop. 2,500,600) 9 km away.
