The Cau River water level rose, causing flooding in many households along the river.

In recent days, due to the impact of prolonged heavy rain combined with floods from upstream, the water level of the Cau River has risen abnormally, causing serious flooding in many residential areas in the provinces along the river.

Hundreds of officers and soldiers of the Provincial Military Command, along with the militia, commune police and a large number of local people were mobilized to reinforce the weak dike sections with soil sacks, bamboo poles and waterproof tarpaulins, and organized 24/7 duty at the weak dike locations, ready to respond when bad situations occurred. The river water rose over 2m in some places, causing a lot of damage to property and crops for the people. Many households were still isolated as of noon on October 9.
