Moderate tremor in western Greece has islanders worried

A tremor measuring 3.7 on the Richter scale struck about 9 kilometers of the western Greek coastal town of Kylini on Tuesday afternoon and while moderate has caused concern on a nearby island.

Residents on the Ionian island of Zakynthos said the 3 p.m. tremor, while small in magnitude, was felt quite strongly, raising concerns as the island has experienced large earthquakes in the past.

There were no reports of injuries or damages.
