A magnitude 5.7 earthquake near Chania, Crete, Greece, was reported only 3 minutes ago by the European-Mediterranean Seismological Centre (EMSC), considered one of the key international agencies that monitor seismic activity worldwide. The earthquake occurred at an intermediate depth of 89.70 km beneath the epicenter in the afternoon on Wednesday, July 23rd, 2025, at 4:26 pm local time. 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 Aristotle University of Thessaloniki Geophysical Lab. (AUTH), which listed it as a magnitude 4.9 earthquake. A third agency, The Seismological Laboratory of the University of Athens (UOA), reported the same quake at magnitude 5.3.
Based on the preliminary seismic data, the quake was probably felt by many people in the area of the epicenter. It should not have caused significant damage, other than objects falling from shelves, broken windows, etc.
In Kissamos (pop. 4,200) located 34 km from the epicenter, the quake should have been felt as light shaking.
Weak shaking might have been felt in Daratsos (pop. 4,700) located 62 km from the epicenter, Mournies (pop. 5,300) 66 km away, Chania (pop. 53,900) 66 km away,
