Some structural damage at Iraklion and Khania. Felt (III) by people on upper floors of buildings in Nicosia. Two events about 1.6 seconds apart observed on broadband displacement seismograms. FAULT PLANE SOLUTION: P-Waves NP1:Strike=70 Dip=70 Slip=137 NP2:Strike=178 Dip=50 Slip=26 Principal Axes: (T) Plg=44 Azm=26 (P) Plg=12 Azm=128 Comment: The focal mechanism is moderately well controlled and corresponds to strike-slip faulting with a large reverse component. The preferred fault plane is not determined. RADIATED ENERGY No. of sta: 26 Focal mech.
