Residents on the popular island of Santorini have experienced hundreds of earthquakes this week while researchers have revealed a new magma chamber underneath the Kolumbo submarine volcano.

Repeated earthquakes are rattling Greece’s volcanic island of Santorini. Scientists say the quakes aren't related to a slight increase in volcanic activity that has also been registered recently.

Experts say the Greek island of Santorini has been hit by more than 1,000 earthquakes, but they're not linked to the region's active volcanoes.
