M4.3 quake hits Evia, felt in Athens; no concern per seismologist

A shallow 4.3 magnitude earthquake struck northeast of Vasilika Istiaias in Evia at 09:42 local time, felt in parts of Evia and Athens due to its 5 km focal depth. Seismologist Lekkas stated there is no reason for concern, indicating a routine seismic event. The shallow depth amplifies local shaking but the moderate magnitude limits damage risk.
