A third agency, the European-Mediterranean Seismological Centre (EMSC), reported the same quake at magnitude 4.4. A second report was later issued by the National Observatory of Athens (NOA), which listed it as a magnitude 4.3 earthquake. 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. Shallow earthquakes are felt more strongly than deeper ones as they are closer to the surface. According to the German Research Centre for Geosciences (GFZ), the quake hit on Friday, October 29th, 2021, at 8:10 am local time at a shallow depth of 10 km. A shallow magnitude 4.6 earthquake was reported in the morning near Tirana, Tirana District, Albania.
