The affected section stretches for about two kilometers, with more than 10,000 cubic meters of soil and rock partially covering the road surface. The landslides disrupted traffic and posed safety risks to people and vehicles traveling through the area.

The officers and soldiers of Dak Nhoong Border Post under the Quang Ngai provincial Border Guard Command work with local residents to repair the landslide-damaged road.

In response, on August 25, Dak Nhoong Border Post mobilized officers and soldiers to work with local authorities and nearly 200 residents from Dak Ung and Dak Ga hamlets in Dak Plo commune. They leveled the road surface, removed soil and debris, cleared drainage ditches, removed obstacles, and temporarily reinforced areas at risk of further landslides. The forces also used more than 150 concrete slabs measuring 60 by 40 centimeters to pave damaged sections and facilitate vehicle movement.

Lieutenant Colonel Bui Quang Thang added that by the morning of August 26, the landslide-affected sections had largely been repaired. Debris had been removed, drainage ditches cleared, and most of the road reopened to traffic. Officers and soldiers of Dak Nhoong Border Post, together with local residents, are continuing to reinforce several other damaged sections to ensure safe travel and the transportation of goods.

The unit is also keeping personnel and equipment on standby and coordinating closely with local authorities to promptly respond to any emerging situations.
