On February 14, 2026 at 21:33 UTC, a magnitude 4.4 shallow crustal earthquake struck 5 km W of Néon Monastírion, Greece, at a depth of 10.0 km and coordinates 39.2310°, 22.2102°.

Physical scale: An earthquake of magnitude 4.4 releases seismic energy equivalent to roughly 60 metric tons of TNT. Empirical fault-scaling laws (Wells & Coppersmith, 1994) estimate the subsurface rupture length at approximately 655 m — a useful intuition for the size of the slip patch on the fault.
