On September 8, speaking to reporters, Mr. Nguyen Viet Hung - Chairman of the People's Committee of Ky Son district (Nghe An) - said that Bao Nam commune had evacuated 40 households and 150 people in Nam Tien 2 village to a safe shelter before storm No. 3.
The reason is that after heavy rains in 2021 and 2022, many large cracks appeared on the mountain and road of Nam Tien 2 village (Bao Nam commune).
In recent days, due to the impact of storm No. 3, Bao Nam commune has had a lot of rain. On September 6, realizing the high risk of landslides and to ensure the safety of the people, the Bao Nam commune authorities coordinated with the police to evacuate 40 households of Nam Tien 2 village from the cracked area to take shelter at Nam Tien 2 village primary school.
Accordingly, 40 households with 150 people of Nam Tien 2 village are arranged to stay in 5 solid classrooms of the Primary School.
These are Khmu ethnic households with difficult economic conditions in Bao Nam commune.
On September 7, Mr. Nguyen Viet Hung - Chairman of the People's Committee of Ky Son district - led a working delegation with Lieutenant Colonel To Van Hau - Head of Ky Son district Police and functional agencies to visit, encourage and give necessities to households in Nam Tien 2 village who are taking shelter from the storm.
