Emergency declared on a second Greek island as a string of earthquakes persists

A state of emergency was declared on Amorgos, a Greek island, due to ongoing earthquakes in the south-eastern Aegean Sea region.
A similar emergency declaration was made for Santorini on February 7 after thousands of tremors were recorded in the area.
About 12,000 earthquakes with magnitudes greater than 1 have been registered since January 26, according to the University of Athens' crisis management committee.
Concerns have increased due to renewed earthquakes around magnitude 5, despite earlier hopes that the seismic activity was easing.
