The scaffolding collapse resulted in the deaths of two workers and injuries to four others.

The incident occurred around 5:00 AM on October 13th at the construction site located at 1 Giap Nhi Street, Thinh Liet Ward, Hoang Mai District, Hanoi.

Mr. Dinh Van Minh (63 years old, head of the neighborhood security team No. 12) said that at that time, he and some family members suddenly heard a very loud "crash".

Mr. Minh immediately ran up to the fifth floor to look at the adjacent construction site and saw that the scaffolding had collapsed, and the workers were in a state of panic.

"Some workers shouted that two people had fallen into the basement and were lying motionless," this witness said.
