What is happening

What the sources report

A fibre-optic cable about 500 metres long is being laid to monitor underwater volcanic and hydrothermal activity off Milos and Santorini.[1][2]

The cable laying is taking place at Koloumbo, as part of the oceanographic mission «HYDROSENSE».[1][2]

Researchers from the NKUA, California's MBARI institute and Italy's National Research Council (CNR) take part in the mission.[1][2]

The mission is carried out with the CNR research vessel «Gaia Blu».[1][2]

In early 2025 a crisis lasting one month struck the area, with more than 30,000 earthquakes.[1][2]
