Specialized equipment and sniffer dogs have been deployed to search for the missing. More military personnel from other communes in the district will be deployed to the site.

Search and rescue forces are exerting every effort to rescue more than 200 workers stranded at the Dak Mi 2 Hydro-power Plant in Quang Nam.

Meanwhile, the neighboring province of Quang Ngai is mobilizing all resources to help locals stabilize their lives after Storm Molave made landfall in the province two days ago.

The strong storm left 13 people injured, brought down 169 houses, and blew away nearly 85,000 roofs.
