The Ministry of Agriculture and Environment has just sent a document to the People's Committees of coastal provinces and cities from Quang Ninh to Lam Dong on proactively responding to the tropical depression near the East Sea.
The document clearly stated that on the morning of October 1, the low pressure area in the sea east of Luzon Island (Philippines) strengthened into a tropical depression. At 10:00 on October 1, 2025, the center of the tropical depression was at about 14.5 degrees north latitude, 131.4 degrees east longitude; the strongest wind near the center of the tropical depression was at level 6-7, gusting to level 9; moving west-northwest at a speed of about 15km/h.

Prepare forces and means to deploy rescue work when situations arise. The agency seriously and regularly reports to the National Civil Defense Steering Committee (Ministry of Agriculture and Environment).
