Pa Thom Bridge is a suspension bridge for people across the Nam Nua River, connecting Pa Xa Lao village to Pung Pon village (old Pa Thom commune). The main cable on the right side of the bridge broke, causing the bridge to collapse and become impassable. The incident left two people seriously injured, currently being treated at Dien Bien Provincial General Hospital, and two others with minor injuries. The motorbike and car fell into the stream.
Thanh Yen Commune People's Committee has directed the commune police and militia to set up barriers and warning signs prohibiting people and vehicles from passing through the broken bridge area to ensure safety. They have assigned forces to guide and direct vehicles to temporarily move across the iron bridge in the area below, about 800m from the broken bridge.
Currently, according to the Dien Bien Provincial Steering Committee for Disaster Prevention and Control, 30 fire police officers have been deployed to the scene to search and salvage the car. Dien Bien Provincial General Hospital has sent highly qualified doctors and the Hospital Director to directly treat the two seriously injured people.
