Typhoon Yagi in Vietnam

The capital city, Hanoi, and other northern provinces of Vietnam experienced landslides and severe flooding starting on Monday morning, 09 September 2024. Heavy rainfall caused by wind patterns from Typhoon Yagi produced flash floods which resulted in many towns and villages being completely immobilised.

Rivers across the impacted provinces overflowed. Residents living close to rivers and low-lying areas were evacuated as water levels rose, first floors of buildings and homes were submerged. Excessive flooding left thousands of households isolated and without electricity or phone service. The reported death toll is over 140 across northern Vietnam and 58 missing.

Schools had to close until further notice. Several roads in the city were flooded, preventing vehicles from moving through. Hundreds of soldiers, police officers, and civilians used soil-filled bags to barricade flooded areas but were unsuccessful due to the high water levels. In some areas, authorities are helping families move their belongings as homes are uninhabitable.
