Magnitude 2.7 earthquake strikes near Paphos, Pafos, Cyprus

The European-Mediterranean Seismological Centre (EMSC) reported a magnitude 2.7 quake in Cyprus near Paphos, Pafos, only 16 minutes ago. The earthquake hit late at night on Wednesday, November 12th, 2025, at 10:23 pm local time at a shallow depth of 15.60 km. 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 citizen-seismograph network of RaspberryShake which listed the quake at magnitude 2.7 as well.
