Water from upstream flows quickly, 200 households in Ha Huy Tap ward are isolated.

(Baohatinh.vn) - Heavy rain combined with water flowing from upstream caused the water level in Ha Huy Tap ward (Ha Tinh) to rise rapidly, isolating 200 households.

From noon to the afternoon of November 1, in Ha Huy Tap ward, the rain was still very heavy, combined with the water from upstream pouring in quickly, causing the water level to rise, isolating many areas. According to records, by 4:00 p.m. on November 1, 100% of the residential group roads were flooded from 30 - 50 cm, in some places nearly 1 meter.

Currently, there are about 200 households in the residential areas of Son Trinh, Trinh Thuong, Phai Nam, Tien Thuong, and Lien Vinh that are completely cut off and isolated. Many families have had their houses flooded.

Many residential streets were flooded like rivers.

Water began to flood into people's houses.

People evacuated to safety

Authorities put up signs to warn people about unsafe and flooded areas.

If the rain is still as heavy as now in the evening, the water will definitely enter the house. My family and I put valuables and all the rice up high to protect our property. I also rowed a boat to help some houses in the residential group move their property and evacuate to overcome the flood days together."

Meanwhile, the area does not have a dike system, causing water to flow into residential areas very quickly, causing flooding.

Faced with the complicated developments of the floods, the local government has proactively deployed the "4 on-site" plan, providing boats to residential groups, activating rapid response teams to support people in placing their belongings and evacuating people to safety. The ward also mobilized forces to support the relocation of assets and the evacuation of people for single-parent families, the elderly, and the sick...
