Residents, tourists flee Santorini in fear of large earthquake

Residents and tourists are evacuating the Greek island of Santorini after increased seismic activity in recent days, with airlines and ferry operators arranging additional transport to facilitate departures.

Frequent earthquakes recorded in Santorini and the surrounding underwater region have caused growing concern among local residents, prompting heightened movement of workers and visitors off the island.

Airlines and maritime companies have scheduled emergency flights and additional ferry routes to accommodate the increased demand, particularly for workers in tourism and construction sectors, as well as visitors currently on the island.

Local residents are closely monitoring developments, with seismologists expected to provide updated assessments of the ongoing seismic activity.

Despite concerns, no material damage has been reported, and daily life on the island continues with relative normality. (incyprus)
