Typhoon No. 3 (Yagi) made landfall in the northern coastal provinces, causing severe losses of lives and properties in the affected provinces and cities. The post-storm circulation also brought heavy rains, causing flooding, flash floods, and landslides, resulting in further severe consequences and losses in many localities.

Demonstrating the spirit of “mutual affection and support,” many provinces in North-Central Vietnam joined hands to share and support the people affected by the storm and floods.

In Quang Binh Province, on the afternoon of September 10, 2024, the province organized a ceremony to call for support for the northern provinces to overcome the consequences of the natural disaster caused by Typhoon No. 3.

At the event, the Party Committee, authorities, and people of Quang Binh Province contributed VND 2.5 billion to support the northern provinces in overcoming the storm and flood damage caused by Typhoon No. 3.

Especially, civil servants, public employees, armed forces, and workers in the province contributed more than VND 500 million to support the northern provinces.

The Provincial Executive Committee also assigned the Provincial Fatherland Front Committee to take the lead in implementing and guiding agencies, units, localities, businesses, and people of Ha Tinh to actively respond to the call of the Central Committee of the Vietnam Fatherland Front to support the people in the northern provinces in a practical, effective, and timely manner.
