The entire mountainous area collapsed and swept away the road.

At the scene, nearly 50m of road and drainage ditches, culverts, telecommunication and electricity poles were pulled down into the abyss. The landslide created a hole dozens of meters deep, with an estimated volume of landslides reaching more than ^20,000m3 .

To support the people of Ta Vinh village with necessities through Highway 83 at Km8+200, the locality had to transport relief goods using homemade pulleys or temporary paths across the mountain that were more than 1km long, slippery and very difficult to move.

Relief goods for people are moved by pulley.
