Tran Hoang VM, born in 2007, was swept away by the flood on the afternoon of October 29th, along National Highway 1A in Huong Tra ward. Due to the low-lying area and proximity to the Bo River with its strong currents, it took dozens of officers and soldiers from our unit and other cooperating forces, along with various types of equipment, nearly three days and nights to find the victim.”

Besides focusing on searching for missing persons, in recent days, the Command Center of Zone 1 - Huong Tra has mobilized all forces and resources to the 17 wards and 3 communes under its jurisdiction to directly assist the people, coordinate with local Party committees and authorities, and direct the Military Commands of the wards and communes to help people prevent and combat floods.

Officers and soldiers of Regiment 6 helped clean up the environment at Dong Ba Market.

At Dong Ba Market, an area severely affected by prolonged flooding, more than 100 officers and soldiers of the 968th Division, in coordination with the Market Management Board and other functional forces, organized the clearing of mud, debris, and waste, and sanitized the entire premises. The walkways and stalls were cleaned, ensuring the market could resume operations as soon as possible.

Many vehicles, trucks, and pumps have been mobilized to transport mud, garbage, and wastewater.
