Rescue and aid teams in central Vietnam are racing to reach isolated communities battered by floods and landslides, which have claimed at least 37 lives, as officials warned on Monday of another powerful typhoon set to make landfall later this week.
Record rainfall since late October has unleashed flash floods and devastating landslides, inundating villages, sweeping away homes, and displacing tens of thousands. Many areas, including Danang, remain without power or data networks. Canals, riverbanks, and coastlines have also eroded, with several national highways still blocked.
