Athens - Seismologists warned Monday that the strong earthquake that struck southwestern Greece over the weekend, killing two and injuring more than 150, will be followed by a strong aftershock.


One man was found dead after the roof of his house collapsed in the village of Kato Achaia and a 80-year-old woman died from her injuries after the 6.5 Richter quake struck Sunday afternoon.

The Athens Geodynamic Institute said the quake's epicenter was approximately 220 kilometers west of Athens, near the western Peloponnese port city of Patras.

More than 150 people suffered injuries, the majority of them minor, and 200 homes were damaged.

The earthquake, which was felt as far away as southern Italy, the northern port city of Thessaloniki, the Ionion islands and Athens, caused panicked residents
