Border guards bring warmth to the hearts of the people during the storm.

Despite the impact of Typhoon No. 13 causing rough seas, strong winds, and large waves offshore, at the coastal border guard posts of Dak Lak province, the cooking fires remained burning, warm water was always readily available, and hot meals, instant noodles, and cartons of milk were passed around in a warm spirit of sharing.

Dak Lak Border Guard soldiers escorted residents to their unit to take shelter safely from the storm.

According to the Dak Lak Border Guard Command, more than 100 coastal residents were safely evacuated to shelters to avoid the storm. At the border guard posts, the people not only found safety but also felt the warm and close bond between the military and civilians, like that of one family.

Border guards were busy preparing warm blankets, boiling water, and rearranging small folding beds for the locals to rest on. Outside, the rain was pouring down, but inside the border post, the sounds of children laughing and the elderly chatting during the stormy season filled the air… here, they felt safe and valued.

In times of hardship, the human spirit shines even brighter, highlighting the noble qualities of Uncle Ho's soldiers. It's not just a duty; it's a blood-and-flesh relationship between the Border Guard and the people living along the coast, where every meal, every lamp lit, symbolizes faith and protection against natural disasters and storms.

Heartwarming meals shared between soldiers and civilians at coastal border guard posts, prepared by the Dak Lak Border Guard for people seeking shelter from storms.

Meanwhile, at the Dak Rue Border Guard Post, due to the complex situation caused by prolonged heavy rain and the release of water from the Ea Sup Thuong Reservoir, many residential areas in Ea Bung commune experienced localized flooding, mainly in hamlets 1, 3, 5, 10, and 12 (formerly Ya To Mot area). The Dak Rue Border Guard Post deployed 10 officers and soldiers to closely monitor the area, coordinating with local authorities to disseminate information and encourage people to proactively take preventive measures and evacuate to safe locations.

Officers and soldiers of the unit directly assisted in evacuating more than 50 households, moving property and essential belongings out of the flooded area; at the same time, they regularly monitored the water level in the streams, promptly reporting and advising the local authorities on response measures.

Currently, the unit continues to maintain a 24/7 on-call force, ready to participate in rescue operations when required.
