On November 1, Mr. Denh Ba Long - Chairman of the People's Committee of Huoi Tu commune (Nghe An) - said that National Highway 16 through the commune was affected by a landslide on the embankment, causing a large amount of rock and soil from the back of the mountain to overflow, completely cutting off the road.
The landslide was located between Huoi Thang and Huoi Don villages, stretching for tens of meters, with mud covering the road surface, making it impossible for people and vehicles to travel.
Immediately after the incident, local authorities assigned forces to be on duty, erected warning signs and notified people not to pass through the dangerous area. The road maintenance unit is mobilizing leveling machinery and urgently repairing it to reopen the route.

By noon on October 31, the temporary road was opened, but on the morning of November 1, the landslide recurred with a larger volume. The locality has arranged 2 leveling excavators, trying to temporarily clear the route during the day.
