Since Monday, Cyclone Tauktae has devastated both the seas and coastlines of west India, racking up casualties and a host of new problems in its wake. Among these was the sinking of a massive cargo ship that had over 200 people onboard.
The Indian military has so far rescued 188 of these passengers but at least one of them tells a harrowing tale of being adrift amidst the storm.

The survivor s account stated that the storm was so fierce that it dislodged their ship from its anchors. The intensity of the storm was such that many of the sailors could not even reach the lifeboats and had simply little choice but jump straight into the sea before the vessel sank.
