jet2 flight from London Stansted was forced to go around due to an earthquake.

The popular tourist hotspot Rhodes has been hit by a 4.8-magnitude earthquake that has left residents rocked.

The Greek island was struck down by terrifying tremors on Wednesday night that was also said to have been felt in Turkey.

It was described as a “relatively shallow” quake by seismologists that reached just 51km south of the Dodecanese islands at its peak at around 8:20pm.
