Greek Earthquake, 6.9, Does Little Damage

And fortunately so. This article sums it up best. A few injuries and some old buildings took some hits (no, not the Parthenon) but otherwise nothing major happened. I spoke to my parents today, who spoke to friends in Athens. They said they definitely felt the shaking but nothing more than that. Good news, as Greece is not a stranger to quakes (note the 1999 quake, smaller in magnitude but bigger in terms of damage).
