On the morning of August 26, authorities and people in many localities in Nghe An province are struggling to overcome the consequences of storm No. 5.

"The storm has terrible destructive power, it has been many years since I have seen such a terrible storm. Currently, many roads in the old Vinh City area are blocked, with no power, and the work to overcome the consequences is still very difficult" - Mr. Le Van Hong, a resident of Truong Vinh Ward (Nghe An) said.

All over social networking sites, people shared pictures of the damage and loss after storm No. 5. Everyone is afraid of the power and devastation of this historic storm.

According to the People's Committee of Nghe An province, in the immediate future, functional forces will focus on ensuring the safety of people's lives, trying as soon as possible to clear major routes, restore power supply, and ensure smooth communication.

Damage statistics are being conducted and will be updated as soon as possible.
