Heavy rains in recent days have caused serious landslides in many areas, cutting off transport routes and isolating mountainous regions of Da Nang City. Local authorities and functional forces are urgently organising food, relief supplies, and essential goods for residents in the isolated areas.

Amid the complex developments of heavy rains and flooding, units of the armed forces have mobilised personnel and equipment to support areas severely inundated and to assist residents in overcoming the aftermath once the waters recede.

Heavy rains and floods had caused 37 deaths, and left five missing and 78 injured across the country as of 8:30 on November 3, according to the Viet Nam Disaster and Dyke Management Authority under the Ministry of Agriculture and Environment.

A prayer and candle-lighting ceremony was held on November 1 at Phat Tich Pagoda in Vientiane to pray for communities affected by recent storms and floods in Viet Nam’s northern and central provinces.

Inspecting flood-hit areas in the central city of Hue on October 31, the Deputy PM commended the Hue Monuments Conservation Centre for its swift and proactive response in cleaning and restoring sites immediately after floodwaters receded, helping to minimise damage and quickly restore the site’s appearance.

Floodwaters in the provinces of Thai Nguyen, Cao Bang, and Lang Son had mostly receded by October 10. Local authorities mobilised officials, relevant agencies, and residents to remove debris, restore electricity, water supply, and telecommunications, and help communities resume normal life as soon as possible.

Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh has decided to allocate 140 billion VND (around 5.6 million USD) from the 2025 central budget contingency fund to help four northern provinces recover from recent floods.

According to a report from the Department of Dike Management and Natural Disaster Prevention and Control under the Ministry of Agriculture and Environment, as of 5pm on October 3, Typhoon No. 10 and the following flooding, landslides, and tornadoes have caused severe damages in many provinces and cities.

Typhoon Bualoi, the 10th storm to appear in the East Sea/South China Sea this year, together with its circulation, has left 194 people dead, missing, or injured and caused an estimated economic loss of about 8.78 trillion VND (332.51 million USD).

Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh has signed an official dispatch, calling for immediate relief operations to help people overcome the devastation brought by Typhoon Bualoi and subsequent floods.

In the face of devastating floods isolating swaths of central Nghe An province, the Ministry of National Defence on July 24 launched an emergency helicopter airlift operation to deliver relief goods to local residents.
