A magnitude 3.8 earthquake near Asopos, Laconia, Peloponnese, Greece, was reported only 15 minutes ago by the European-Mediterranean Seismological Centre (EMSC), considered one of the key international agencies that monitor seismic activity worldwide. The earthquake occurred at a very shallow depth of 5. km beneath the epicenter after midnight on Sunday, July 12th, 2026, at 12:41 am local time. The exact magnitude, epicenter, and depth of the quake might be revised within the next few hours or minutes as seismologists review data and refine their calculations, or as other agencies issue their report.A second report was later issued by The Seismological Survey of Serbia (SSS), which listed it as a magnitude 3.9 earthquake. Other agencies reporting the same quake include the National Observatory of Athens (NOA) at magnitude 3.7, The Aristotle University of Thessaloniki Geophysical Lab. (AUTH) at magnitude 3.6, The Seismological Laboratory of the University of Athens (UOA) at magnitude 3.6, and the citizen-seismograph network of RaspberryShake at magnitude 3.7.Based on the preliminary seismic data, the quake should not have caused any significant damage, but was probably felt by many people as light vibration in the area of the epicenter. Weak shaking might have been felt in Agios Fokas (pop. 19) located 6 km from the epicenter, and Gefyra (pop. 1,300) 17 km away.Other towns or cities near the epicenter where the quake might have been felt as very weak shaking include Sykia (pop. 1000) located 27 km from the epicenter, Asopos (pop. 4,200) 29 km away, Molaoi (pop. 3,000) 36 km away, Kato Glykovrysi (pop. 1,800) 41 km away, Vlachiotis (pop. 2,400) 48 km away, and Skala (pop. 2,800) 50 km away. In Sparti (pop. 16,200, 82 km away), the quake was probably not felt.Earthquake data: Date & time: Jul 12, 2026 12:41 am (Athens time) local time (11 Jul 2026 21:41 GMT)Magnitude: 3.8Depth: 5.00 kmEpicenter latitude / longitude: 36.54°N / 23.07°E (Dimos Monemvasia, Peloponnese, Greece)Primary data source: EMSC
