CORFU. According to Athens Geodynamic Institute, at 13:23 there was an earthquake in the sea 7km north of Lefkimmi with a depth of 10km.

There was a 2.3 Richter earthquake at 13:23 on Tuesday 14 April in the sea 7km north of Lefkimmi.

The relatively shallow depth - estimated at 10km by the Athens Geodynamic Institute - and its proximity to Corfu meant that it was felt on the island despite the low magnitude.
