As reported by Da Nang Newspaper and Radio & Television , at approximately 9:30 AM on November 14th, a large-scale landslide occurred in the Put village area – upstream, about 250 meters from the local water dam and the Ga Ry Border Guard Post – burying many areas and blocking traffic for more than 200 meters.

The landslide resulted in three people missing, damaged three motorbikes and five Jun houses (houses used for farming), and caused the loss of nine cows and 15 hectares of farmland belonging to local residents.

Immediately after the incident occurred, the City Military Command directed the Regional Defense Command 2 - Thanh My and local forces to urgently deploy forces to the scene.

Simultaneously, 103 officers and soldiers were mobilized from the City Military Command, the Regional Defense Command 2 - Thanh My, the militia force of Hung Son commune, Ga Ry Border Guard Post, the commune police and the People's Committee of Hung Son commune, along with 2 flycams and 3 vehicles, to actively participate in the search and rescue operation and force mobilization.

Given the possibility of prolonged heavy rain in the coming period, steep terrain, and a very high risk of further landslides, the City Military Command requests that all forces maintain the highest state of readiness and deploy search and rescue efforts for missing victims with urgency and determination, while ensuring absolute safety.

At the same time, the coordinated forces assisted in evacuating residents, protecting property, and maintaining stability in the area.

Da Nang newspapers and radio and television will continue to inform readers about the developments of this case.
