volcanic eruption?
While the government has claimed that the earthquakes with more than 4.5 magnitude were not linked to the volcano of Santorini, some experts have raised the alarm. In particular, the winding island in the Aegean Sea is located around a flooded volcanic Caldera.
The island is famous for its historical volcanic activity, especially a large -scale minoan explosion around 1600 BC that is considered one of the largest in human history. Between 2011 and 2012, Santorini experienced a similar seismic herd associated with the magma movement below the surface, but no explosion occurred.
The most recent explosion in the history of Santorini was recorded in 1950, suggesting that the volcano of the island remains active, but not necessarily on the verge of an explosion. Despite the immediate threat, scientists continue to monitor the situation to understand whether there is an indication of magma movement or if it is part of general tectonic activity in the region.
