Poompuhar, a coastal village in Tamil Nadu, was severely affected by the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami. The village, once an ancient port city, suffered significant damage and loss of life. Footage from that time shows the devastating impact of the tsunami, with waves sweeping through the village and destroying homes and infrastructure.The once-bustling shoreline was reduced to ruins, with debris scattered everywhere.Powerful waves carried boats from the shore onto railway tracks, causing widespread damage.Boats were destroyed disrupting the livelihoods of fishermen.
The 2004 tsunami was triggered by a 9.3 magnitude undersea earthquake off Sumatra, Indonesia, affecting several countries including India, Sri Lanka, and Thailand .
