In central Quang Tri province, search and rescue operations are underway for nine missing fishermen after two boats sank in the Gianh River late on September 28. Thirteen crew members were on board; four swam ashore while nine remain missing amid rough seas.

In north-central Thanh Hoa province, prolonged downpours submerged many streets in Hac Thanh ward, paralyzing traffic and daily activities.

In northern Lao Cai province, torrential rains and thunderstorms damaged nearly 250 homes, including one that collapsed, while 190 ha of crops were destroyed. Landslides along provincial road 162 involved some 30,000cbm of debris, with more erosion reported on other routes.
