Reuters say there are no immediate reports of casualties or damage. It appears to have been just of the coast of Rhodes.

Graham,

I have checked the location maps, the quake was located 65kn SW of Rhodes town. The google map for the site shows that it was on the island.

Yammas, Colin.

Sadly, it seems there was one casualty.   

Taken from a news page "one person has been killed in an accident after a magnitude 6.3 earthquake struck off the island of Rhodes in southeast Greece, but there were no other reports of casualties or damage.

The quake occurred about 70km south of the island in the Aegean sea, at a depth of about 13km, the Athens Geodynamic Institute said...."

Unfortunately it seems one person was killed indirectly by the quake (which was of an 'average size' for the area). A woman slipped on the stairs as she tried to flee outside and banged her head.
