Heavy rains have caused localized flooding in many locations in districts and cities, causing damage to housing and agricultural production, affecting the lives of people in districts and cities in the province. By 11:30 a.m. on May 23, 8 houses in Lam Binh and Na Hang districts were affected by landslides; 1 auxiliary project of Xuan Lam Secondary and High School for Ethnic Minorities (Lam Binh) was eroded.
