		</div><p>A strong earthquake has been felt in the Greek capital Athens, causing people to run out into the streets.</p>
<p>The 5.3-magnitude quake was felt 9km (5.6 miles) from Eleusis just after 2pm local time.</p>
<p>The quake caused power cuts across the capital. The fire brigade reported receiving calls about people trapped in lifts.</p>
<p>Authorities say there was no immediate word on injuries or damage.</p>
<p>Visitor Alex, from Manchester, said the earthquake lasted a few seconds.</p>
<p>She said: <em>“I don’t think it was super serious, I’m not an Athens native and I’m from the UK so it shocked me and my family a lot — we never experience earthquakes.</em></p>
<p><em>“I was actually asleep at the time, so I was very scared initially.</em></p>
<p><em>“Everything seems normal, the apartment I’m in is hidden from the main street view, but no noticed damage.”</em></p>
<p>The Athens Institute of Geodynamics initially said the earthquake had a magnitude of 5.1 but the US Geological Survey has assessed it as a 5.3-magnitude.</p>
