Abstract
On 02-23-2015, an earthquake took place in the Iberian Peninsula megablock. This event is of the intraplate- type (Mw= 4,7 / h= 17 km) where there is a deformed morphotectonic zone. The epicenter and the normal and strike-slip solution focal mechanism were determined in the Albacete block -which has an uplifting tendency inside of the Albacete and Cuenca mesoblocks.
