On June 24, in Lang Son City (Lang Son Province), heavy rain occurred over a large area, causing flooding on several roads such as Ba Trieu, Ngo Quyen, and Tran Quang Khai. These are places that are often flooded when heavy rain lasts for a long time, making it difficult for many vehicles to travel.

In particular, at the Ngam bridge area, flood water rushed over the bridge, making it impossible for people to see the road. However, some vehicles still passed through, posing a risk of being swept away by the water.
Similarly, this morning, June 25, people also recorded images of a passenger bus braving the rushing water and passing through the overflow tunnel at Phuc An, Yen Binh District, Yen Bai Province.
The above image was assessed by the Department of Dyke Management and Natural Disaster Prevention and Control (Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development) as people "playing with natural disasters".

"There have been many cases of disregard for life when going through spillways during the flood season, leaving behind tragic consequences. We recommend that people not be subjective and absolutely avoid going through spillways, fishing, and collecting firewood on the river... during the flood season to ensure safety," the Department of Dyke Management and Disaster Prevention and Control emphasized.
Also on June 25, the Standing Office of the National Steering Committee for Natural Disaster Prevention and Control issued a notice on proactively responding to and minimizing damage caused by heavy rain and the risk of flash floods and landslides.
