Earthquake in Cyprus

The 1953 Paphos earthquake struck off the coast of Paphos on Cyprus at 07:05 EEST on 10 September. The earthquake with a magnitude of Mw 6.3 or Ms 6.5, occurred at a depth of 20 km (12 mi). It was caused by normal faulting at a shallow depth; further analysis of seismic data revealed a doublet earthquake with two similarly sized subevents 50 km (31 mi) apart and separated by 8 seconds.
