Heavy rains have caused severe flooding and landslides across northern Vietnam, inundating thousands of homes and damaging over 10,000 hectares of crops. At least three people have died, and key transport routes, including the Hanoi-Ho Chi Minh City railway, have been disrupted. Authorities have mobilized emergency personnel and advised students to stay home or switch to online classes.
