On the evening of September 22, the leaders of Tan Ky High School (Tan Ky District, Nghe An Province) said that recently, 4 male students of the school bravely and quickly saved 2 victims who were swept away by floodwaters.
Accordingly, at noon on September 20, a group of students including Nguyen Van The Anh, Hoang Van Kien, Pham Manh Khoi, and Tran Doan Anh Duc from Tan Ky High School were returning home from school.
At that time, the road through Block 1, Tan Ky town was deeply flooded. Due to sudden heavy rain, the road was flooded so the local authorities had not yet set up warning barriers.
At this moment, the group discovered two people had fallen into the ditch, so they immediately ran to help and brought them safely to shore in time.
Images and information about the incident were shared on social networks and many people expressed admiration and praise for the group of male students.
The recent floods have caused landslides and flooding in many places in Nghe An province; so far, two people have died due to the floods.
Nghe An Provincial People's Committee has issued an urgent dispatch directing response, including requesting road closures, standing guard at dangerous traffic locations, and evacuating people from landslide areas.
