On June 6, 2024 at 19:22 UTC, a magnitude 4.0 shallow crustal earthquake struck 104 km S of Néa Anatolí, Greece, at a depth of 43.4 km and coordinates 34.0693°, 25.5613°.

Physical scale: An earthquake of magnitude 4.0 releases seismic energy equivalent to roughly 15 metric tons of TNT. Empirical fault-scaling laws (Wells & Coppersmith, 1994) estimate the subsurface rupture length at approximately 347 m — a useful intuition for the size of the slip patch on the fault.
