The controversial Greek seismologist, Akis Tselentis, who was quoted by Ilir Meta as having predicted an apocalyptic earthquake in Albania, after the one in Durres, has "struck" again.
This time he has alarmed the Greeks, stating that a major earthquake is expected in the coming hours in the area near the Greek island of Santorini, which has been under the sway of continuous seismic tremors for two days now.
According to him, the seismic zone is constantly expanding to the northeast, while the great Amorgos fault, which caused the devastating earthquake of 1956, appears to have been reactivated. The seismic activity shows the characteristics of a pre-earthquake sequence, meaning that the more time passes without the main earthquake occurring, the greater its magnitude.
This is not the first time Tselentis has made such claims, having previously claimed to have predicted the devastating earthquake that struck the Turkey-Syria border. He has also faced trials in the past for spreading panic with his statements.
