The commune militia saved two people in the middle of the flood

Mr. Nguyen Van Hieu, 41 years old, and his friend crossed the bridge to live in Soc Qua hamlet, Tan Hung commune, during heavy rain on the afternoon of May 29. Due to coming from another locality, the two do not know the terrain, when crossing the bridge, the flood water flowing from the upstream swept away both cars and people.

While entangled in the rubber trees in the middle of the stream, the two victims called for help. At this time, the military command of Tan Hung commune went to check the key points to detect and organize rescue. The two army soldiers used life jackets and ropes to rush into the flood water, bringing the victims to safety.

Mr. Bui Van Cong, Commander of the Military Command of Tan Hung Commune, said that Soc Qua hamlet area is flooded every year after heavy rains, the water depth is 2-3 m.
