Vice Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee Nguyen Ngoc Sam inspected and directed the overcoming of landslides in Mang But commune.

After the prolonged rains in late October and early November 2025 and the impact of storm KALMAEGI (storm No. 13), during the night of November 6 to noon of November 7, the entire old Mang But commune area was completely cut off from the new commune center due to serious landslides on Provincial Road 676; at the same time, the water level in some underground overflows rose, causing difficulties for travel.

Road 676 through Tu Ret village suffered serious landslides.
The locality is coordinating with the construction unit of Provincial Road 676 to urgently fix landslides and ensure the route is reopened. However, as of the afternoon of November 7, some traffic routes connecting the new commune center with the villages are still cut off. In particular, the routes connecting Mang But commune with Son Tay Thuong commune and the Mang But - Tra Van route (Da Nang ) are still closed to traffic.

The leader of the Commune People's Committee said that the locality will proactively contact the leaders of Tra Van and Son Tay Thuong communes to coordinate in overcoming landslides, soon open the route, creating favorable conditions for local people in trade and travel.

Mountainous areas are frequently subject to landslides in Tu Ret village.

In addition to cutting off traffic, many landslides in Mang But commune also pose a potential safety risk to households living at the foot of the mountain, especially in Tu Ret and Dak Puk villages.

Many residential areas at the foot of the mountain are at high risk of landslides and need to have a plan to support evacuation soon to ensure the safety of people's lives.
