Repeated earthquakes are rattling Greece’s volcanic island of Santorini. The quakes are prompting authorities to dispatch rescuers with tents, a sniffer dog and drones and to shut down schools on four islands.

Thousands of locals flee the picturesque island as experts say rolling tremors ‘not linked to volcanic activity’.

Santorini's earthquakes are intensifying as a rare earthquake swarm continues to rattle the Mediterranean's Aegean Sea. The earthquakes are probably caused by faults rather than volcanic activity.
