MR5 reinforces its presence in second phase of “Quang Trung Campaign” in Dak Lak province

Infantry Division 2 sends forces to Dak Lak province.

In the second phase of the campaign, units under MR5 will continue to construct 80 new houses and repair 110 heavily damaged ones. In addition, 50 teams have been established to coordinate with local authorities in dredging and restoring the intra-field canal system, ensuring water sources for the Winter-Spring crop and helping locals soon stabilize their production activities.

Statistics showed that the recent historic flood in Dak Lak province submerged approximately 150,000 houses, with 653 totally collapsed or severely damaged. Upholding their core role in natural disaster prevention and control, the military forces have undertaken the construction of a total of 231 new houses. This is considered an urgent political task, demonstrating the responsibility of the Party, State and military toward the people in disaster-hit areas.

Troops of Regiment 888 under the Dak Lak provincial Military Command clear debris of a collapsed house caused by floods in Son Hoa commune to build a new one.

In this phase, MR5’s Infantry Division 2 has mobilized over 450 officers and soldiers, divided into 37 construction teams and 45 repair teams. Meanwhile, Infantry Division 315 has mobilized 16 construction teams and 22 repair teams.

As the on-site standing force, the Dak Lak provincial Military Command has established six construction teams, ten repair teams, and 11 canal dredging teams to carry out tasks directly in localities.

These activities have contributed to reaffirming military-civilian solidarity, highlighting the noble image of “Uncle Ho’s soldiers” and helping Dak Lak people firmly restore their lives after the disaster.
