M6.7 southern Greece |
Assuming it is real and not taken away, there was a M6.7 far southern Greece, near the subduction zone. A lot of Greece and Aegean Sea are stretching and rotating, and strands of the right-lateral North Anatolia fault system terminate westward into Greece mainland....clockwise rotation can carry right-lateral block motion and that is probably the only way to terminate a fast faults system like that, It's what happens to right-lateral faults against the California Transverse Ranges Hosgri, Whittier, Newport-Inglewood, Palos Verdes, San Pedro Basin, Santa Cruz-Catalina Ridge.
