#viral | Vietnam's Capital Faces Severe Flooding After Typhoon Matmo’s Nighttime Downpour Heavy overnight rains linked to Typhoon Matmo inundated Hanoi on Tuesday, flooding streets and low-lying neighborhoods. Water levels reached critical heights in several areas, disrupting traffic but not halting the city’s activity. In Lang Son Province, part of the Bac Khe-1 Hydropower Plant dam—around 10 meters—was breached, releasing water downstream (last video). Authorities swiftly evacuated 200–300 families from four nearby villages, preventing casualties.Emergency teams are now assessing structural safety and damages as water levels begin to recede, helping residents restore normalcy after the storm’s impact.Subscribe to @sputnik_africa Sputnik Africa | X
