Cyprus is located in a complex zone of a boundary between the Anatolian and African Plates. These two plates are colliding along the Cyprus Arc, a tectonic boundary that runs south of the island. This subduction zone is offset by a small transform fault known as the Paphos Transform Fault. This plate boundary, along with the Dead Sea Transform and East Anatolian Fault Leads to motion of the African and Arabian Plates.[6] This has resulted in moderately destructive, occasional earthquakes, including a magnitude 7.0–7.5 in 1222 which caused severely impacted the island and generated a large tsunami.

The earthquake was the largest in Cyprus since 1996,[5] and was felt across the island as well as Turkey, Greece, Egypt, Israel and Lebanon.[7][8] The earthquake had a thrust focal mechanism and was centred about 50 km (31 mi) from the coast.[3]
