Hanoi city council has approved the implementation of 10 urgent anti-flooding projects, with a total investment of nearly 5,600 billion VND, to enhance drainage capacity and disaster response before the 2026 rainy season.

Heavy rain lasting nearly three hours caused many roads and homes in the Phan Rang - Thap Cham area to be deeply flooded on the morning of 10/12.

Dozens of fishermen and soldiers are involved in salvaging boats damaged or sunk by severe floodwaters in Lien Huong commune.

Despite clearing skies, floodwaters recede slowly, leaving many homes in Ham Thang ward (formerly Binh Thuan province) nearly submerged to their rooftops.

Hydropower dam discharges combined with high tide caused severe flooding in many homes along the Phu Hai river, Ham Thuan Bac ward, prompting thousands of residents to seek help overnight.

The Amphorn Kaeophengkro family, unable to evacuate as floodwaters surged, had to cling to their belongings for 48 hours while waiting for the water to recede.
