 The Greek capital of Athens was gently rattled by a magnitude 4.0 tremor early Sunday, but there were no reports of damage or injuries.
The Athens Geodynamic Institute reported the quake’s epicenter was about 8 miles (13 km) northeast of the capital. Quakes are frequent in the country, but rarely occur so close to Athens, according to seismologists at the institute. • Southern parts of Albania and neighboring areas of western Greece were rocked on Sunday by a magnitude 5.3 quake. The shaking was felt strongly in the Greek city of Ioannina and the nearby island of Corfu at 9:50 a.m. local time.
