VietNamNet Bridge – Over the past two days, heavy downpours have caused widespread flooding in northern mountainous provinces after Typhoon Rammasun struck the region.
At least 27 people were killed and two remain missing.
Ha Giang had the most fatalities, with seven, followed by Lai Chau with six, Lang Son five, Lao Cai three, Son La three, Cao Bang one, Dien Bien one, and Bac Kan one.
Rising floodwaters prompted an evacuation of more than 5,500 houses from low-lying areas to higher ground, including 5,000 households in Lang Son province. Lang Son also has 5,800 out of a total of 5,902 inundated houses in the entire northern mountainous region, according to initial reports.
