Accordingly, immediately after the meeting at the Forward Command in Military Region 4, Deputy Prime Minister Tran Hong Ha, leaders of Military Region 4, leaders of Ha Tinh province and the working delegation inspected the Hoi Thong dike protection work in Dan Hai commune, Ha Tinh province.
At this time, despite heavy rain and strong winds, hundreds of officers and soldiers of the armed forces are reinforcing the severely eroded coastline, threatening the safety of the residential area in the Hoi Thong dike.
Here, Deputy Prime Minister Tran Hong Ha requested authorities at all levels to mobilize maximum forces and means, urgently reinforcing the dykes as soon as possible before the storm made landfall.
During that process, it is necessary to ensure human safety. Continue to closely monitor the development of storms and floods to have a plan to minimize damage...
Previously, to prevent storm No. 5, on August 23 and 24, the Dan Hai commune government mobilized nearly 500 people and a number of excavators to transport 600m3 of boulders and 200m3 of soil to reinforce and prevent coastal erosion.
Along with the anti-landslide embankment, to ensure the safety of people before the storm made landfall, the locality had to evacuate more than 600 people to a solid location.
In recent years, the coastline in Xuan Hoi commune (now Dan Hai commune) has been severely eroded, the sea eroded deep into the mainland, threatening the Hoi Thong dike, potentially endangering the safety of the residential areas of Hoi Long and Tan Ninh Chau villages.
