Greek authorities declared a state of emergency in Santorini following days of "intense" earthquake swarms rattling the island. The strongest quake, registering a magnitude of 5.2, struck on Wednesday.

Vasilis Karastathis, director of the Geodynamic Institute, told local media outlet ERT News that "seismicity continues at the same pace as in previous days, intense.

"We have a fairly high number of earthquakes with magnitudes above 4," Karastathis said, adding, "We are still in the middle of the road. We have not seen any thinning, any sign that it is heading towards retreat."
