Mr. Le Phan Minh, Deputy Secretary of the Party Committee and Chairman of the People's Committee of Vu Gia Commune, said that many embankments along the Quang Hue and Vu Gia rivers are seriously eroded. If not repaired promptly, the risk of subsidence and being washed away is very high. The floods have also covered about 100 hectares of agricultural land, greatly affecting the next crop.

After the inspection, Chief of the City Party Committee Office Tran Thang Loi requested the locality to review and make detailed statistics on the extent of damage, especially in areas at risk of affecting residential areas and production infrastructure. At the same time, the commune government needs to urgently deploy temporary solutions to limit the spread of landslides and ensure people's safety. In the long term, the city will soon consider a comprehensive treatment plan, solidifying the river embankment system to help stabilize production and life after floods.
