On the morning of November 24, the military force coordinated with local authorities to directly inspect the scene of the crack on Trang Bang hill, Lac Thien 2 village. Currently, the crack has stretched over 700m on the top of the hill, with an opening of about 50cm and a drop of about 50cm.
Cracks and landslides appeared in the area of dangerous high hills. The surrounding land is soaked with water, with a great risk of landslides. Outside the hill, many areas near people's houses have collapsed with large volumes of land.
Currently, the main soldiers of the units of Military Region 7; local soldiers of the Provincial Military Command, infantry Regiment 994, Defense Command of Region 1 - Duc Trong and Lam Dong Police are urgently supporting households to evacuate people and property to safety.
Mr. Nguyen Lam, a resident in this area, said that for many years, people living here have had no problems. The appearance of a large crack on the hilltop and landslides right behind the residential area as it is now makes people very worried.
"My family has 4 generations living together with 20 people, and is currently urgently moving to live in a safe area. With the timely help of the forces, the relocation of our family was less difficult" - Mr. Lam worried.
As reported by Lao Dong Newspaper, on the evening of November 23, in Duong Moi village, 6 households with 20 people were also evacuated due to cracks and landslides on the slope.
