This morning, a section of National Highway 27C (Khanh Le Pass) through Son Thai Commune, Khanh Vinh District suffered a landslide, with a mass of rock and soil flowing down, blocking the asphalt road, paralyzing traffic. From Km42 to Km60 on Khanh Le Pass, there were 3 serious landslides, with a total volume of rock and soil flowing onto the road of about 1,000m3.
Authorities then put up signs and ropes to warn people and stop vehicles at the foot of the pass. At the same time, they dispatched specialized vehicles to handle landslides and check for new landslides.
According to authorities, the cause of the landslide was prolonged rain, the amount of soil and rock "absorbing" water for many days. The landslide trapped passersby, forcing them to take temporary shelter at shrines and small huts in the area.
Khanh Vinh district authorities walked through the landslide site, bringing food and water to the trapped people. At the same time, they notified Lam Dong province authorities to help clear the road and rescue the trapped people.
