On Monday, Chennai witnessed heavy rains due to Cyclone Michaung which flooded various parts of the city and disrupted normal lives. Though rains have stopped now, most parts of the city still remain submerged, with heavy inundation in low-lying areas. Not just humans, but animals are also badly affected by the rising water levels and widespread destruction. Thankfully, humans are not abandoning their furry friends, and coming to their rescue. One such video has surfaced on X showing two men rescuing two dogs trapped on the side of a road.
''Humanity is still alive. Thank you, rescue team,'' reads the caption posted along with the video. The clip opens to show two dogs stuck in floodwater as two men approach them with a cart. The men walk in knee-deep water and pick up the scared dogs to place them in the vehicle and take then to safety.
