Of these, 9 houses were completely collapsed, 21 houses were damaged and uninhabitable, 1 house was swept away by the flood, and 73 households are in areas at high risk of landslides.
Nam Pu was the most severely damaged village with 3 houses completely collapsed and many livestock and poultry of the people were swept away. More worryingly, on the mountain top next to the village appeared a slide over 200 m long, with cracks up to 60 cm deep, directly threatening the lives and property of 16 households. The local government organized an urgent evacuation of people and property from the danger zone.
Ms. Quàng Thị Chơ, Nam Pu village, shared: At around 8pm on July 26, it was raining heavily. I was in the house when I suddenly heard a loud explosion behind the house. I ran out and saw rocks and soil pouring down the stream. We only had time to hug our children and run outside. Immediately after that, we shouted to inform the neighbors to move out of the house. Some families ran up the hill, others ran to the village cultural house. Now, we dare not return home because we are still in the danger zone.
The family of Ms. Tran Thi Thinh, also in Nam Pu village, said: On the evening of July 26, during heavy rain, my house was suddenly flooded with rocks from the high hill. At that time, family members tried to open the door to run out but could not because the door was blocked by mud. In the panic, we discovered a hole in the back wall of the house caused by rocks rolling in, so we escaped through this way. Currently, there are Mobile Police soldiers, Provincial Police are helping the family overcome the consequences.
On the night of July 26, the Standing Committee of the Party Committee and the People's Committee of Huoi Mot commune mobilized local forces to organize an emergency evacuation of people.

Hoa Mai Nam Man Kindergarten is also located in a high-risk landslide area, the school has proactively relocated all assets and teaching equipment to a safe place.
In times of crisis, the solidarity of the cadres and people of Huoi Mot was further promoted. The militia, youth union members, and mass organizations worked together to transport food and evacuate belongings from dangerous locations. All for the purpose of leaving no one behind, ensuring the safety of people's lives and property.

The Party Committee and the communal government continued to closely follow the grassroots, updating the situation of each village and each household; at the same time, they counted the damage and proposed timely support plans for the people to soon stabilize their lives.
