Istanbul, Ramadan 23, 1438, June 18, 2017, SPA -- An earthquake measuring at least magnitude 5.2 struck off the Turkish coast Saturday, just five days after a strong earthquake in the same area that left a woman dead on a Greek island. Turkey's emergency preparedness agency AFAD recorded the quake at magnitude 5.3. The Helmholtz Centre in Potsdam, Germany, recorded it at 5.2. Just like Monday's quake, the new one hit in the Aegean Sea, between the Turkish region of Karaburun and the Greek island of Lesbos. There were no immediate reports of injuries Saturday. Monday's quake saw a woman killed on Lesbos. --SPA 00:51 LOCAL TIME 21:51 GMT www.spa.gov.sa/w430108
