Dozens of people worked to rescue cars trapped after the flood.

In the parking area of ​​the Ky Son District Political Center, two five-seater cars belonging to local residents were buried under mud and rocks by the devastating flood that occurred on the morning of October 2nd. However, due to being isolated by floodwaters for several days afterward, it wasn't until the morning of October 5th that dozens of young people were able to help remove large rocks and shovel away the mud to rescue the cars.
