On the afternoon of July 17, some spillways in Mon Son and Luc Da communes overflowed. In particular, at Khe Moi spillway in Hong Son village, Luc Da commune (the bridge is located on the inter-commune road from the town to Yen Khe, Luc Da, Mon Son), the water level rose high, completely cutting off traffic.
