Recently, on May 17, the authorities of Soc Son district (Hanoi) received a report that 5 young people were trapped on Ham Lon mountain, Thanh Ha village, Nam Son commune. This group went up the mountain to camp, but could not go down the mountain due to heavy rain, slippery roads, darkness, and limited visibility.
