Resort wall collapses in Mui Ne, killing worker

A resort wall collapsed on workers installing a drainage system in Mui Ne on the afternoon of 8/8, resulting in one fatality and one injury.

Around 1:45 p.m., Duong Minh Ngoc, 50, from Hoa Thang commune, was part of a group of workers digging to install a drainage system in front of a resort. This work was part of a project to repair and upgrade Nguyen Dinh Chieu street in Mui Ne ward.

While the group was working, the resort wall, standing over 2 meters tall, suddenly collapsed, crushing Ngoc and another worker.
