90 missing at sea in the wake of Cyclone Tauktae – BBC News


More than 90 people are missing after a barge off the coast of Mumbai, India, sank amid a severe cyclone.

The Indian navy said it had rescued 177 of the 270 people aboard and that efforts to find survivors were ongoing.

Three other commercial barges carrying about 700 people are stranded at sea in the wake of cyclone Tauktae, which has battered India’s western coast.

Tauktae weakened after it made landfall on Monday but at least 12 people have already died in the storm.
