A 5.1 magnitude earthquake struck in the Mediterranean near Crete, about 250 kilometres from the coast of Mugla province, Türkiye, at a depth of 9 kilometres, according to Türkiye's disaster agency AFAD, cited by AZERTAC.
No damage or casualties have been reported so far. The epicentre lies in the sea between Crete, Greece, and the Turkish coast, a seismically active stretch of the Mediterranean where tremors are common.
For readers in Mugla, the distance is the reassuring part: a 5.1 quake 250 kilometres offshore is felt, but it is far from the shore.
