(Baonghean.vn) - Along the streams in Chau Nga and Chau Hoi communes (Quy Chau district), floods have swept away hundreds of hectares of rice paddies that were in bloom; hundreds of houses were severely flooded, many were swept away, and hundreds of livestock and poultry were also carried away by the water.
 |
| The severe flooding in the early morning of September 14th caused the river levels in Quy Chau district to rise suddenly. |
 |
| The flood came suddenly, and in an instant, the village was submerged in floodwaters. |
 |
| Many families were caught off guard, unable to reinforce their homes or move their belongings... |
 |
| These days, scenes of devastation are evident in many villages in the mountainous district of Quỳ Châu. |
 |
| It's hard to imagine that just a few days ago, this devastated area was once a cozy village with traditional stilt houses. |
 |
| Most of the rice fields in the area were also flattened by the floodwaters. |
 |
| Hundreds of hectares of rice paddies are covered in mud after the flood. |
 |
| Many once fertile rice fields are now nothing more than a thick layer of mud. |
 |
| The rice plants "died" in the mud after flowering. |
 |
| Currently, under the direction of Quy Chau district, forces are coordinating with local people to mitigate the consequences. |
 |
| Locals are working hard to repair the roads. |
 |
| Take advantage of the situation to salvage whatever remains in the rubble. |
 |
| Many children are also taking advantage of the opportunity to dry their remaining books and notebooks so they can continue going to school. However, the reality is that the flood has left behind only devastation; many roads are severely damaged, many households are facing housing difficulties, and many children are unable to attend school... Therefore, attention and support from many sides are urgently needed. Only then can the lives of the people here hope to recover. |
