ATHENS, Greece - An undersea earthquake with a magnitude of at least 6.7 shook Greece on Sunday and was felt as far away as Egypt and Jordan, officials said.
The quake struck at 1.34 p.m. local time (6:34 a.m. EST) was centered near the island of Kythira, about 125 miles south of Athens, the Athens Geodynamic Institute said.
Three people were slightly injured, and Kythira's airport and buildings in the southern island of Crete suffered minor damage, authorities said.
The Athens Geodynamic Institute said the magnitude was 6.9, while the U.S Geological Survey said it measured 6.7.
The earthquake was felt in Cairo, Egypt, about 745 miles southeast of the epicenter, and in Amman, Jordan, but there were no immediate reports of damage or casualties.
