At least two people have been killed and more than 100 have been injured after a strong earthquake struck Greek islands and Turkey’s Aegean coast early Friday morning, authorities said.

Serious damage at #Kos #Greece after M6.7 #earthquake + small #Tsunami in #bodrum #Turkey.
“The buildings affected were mostly old and were built before the earthquake building codes were introduced,” Kyritsis said.

The coast guard announced the island’s port was part of the structural damage.

Apparently not enough.

Only two dead so far? Greece hasn’t much luck over the last decade but that’s definitely some good news.

The brick, whitewashed stones, plaster, and tile making up most Aegean building styles isn’t exactly noted for quake resistance.

With a 6.7 magnitude and a ~30 second period, it must have been fairly deep. That would have helped minimize the damage.

Do not date. Do not impregnate. Do not co-habitate. Above all, do not marry. Reclaim and never again surrender your personal sovereignty.
