Today (October 31), the floodwaters have receded. The Hue City Military Command has mobilized maximum forces and vehicles, water pumps, and sprayers to support schools and localities in cleaning up mud and sanitizing the environment, ensuring that schools can soon welcome students back to school and people can stabilize their lives again.

On Huynh Thuc Khang Street, Phu Xuan Ward, due to its proximity to the river, the receding floodwaters left behind a thick layer of mud. Taking advantage of favorable weather, more than 50 officers and soldiers of Regiment 6, local militia and residents coordinated to urgently clean up the street.

Mr. Tran Duy Tan, Vice Principal of Chu Van An Secondary School, shared: "Because the workload was so large, since yesterday, October 30, the school proactively contacted the City Military Command to ask for support forces to help the school. Today, officers and soldiers arrived very early, actively cleaned mud, trash, and cleaned classrooms, so the work of overcoming the consequences of the flood was completed earlier than expected..."

Soldier Vo Huynh Huy Hoang, Battalion 1, Regiment 6, Hue City Military Command shared: "The task of helping people overcome the consequences of floods is the responsibility and duty of each officer and soldier in the unit. Therefore, when receiving orders from superiors, we put all our spirit and responsibility into helping people overcome the consequences caused by natural disasters."
