(NLDO) - Many fire fighting vehicles and soldiers were mobilized on the night of March 20 to put out a large fire that broke out in Tau mountain area, Tuy Phong district, Binh Thuan.

Immediately after that, due to strong winds, the fire quickly broke out strongly, spreading over an area of several hectares. By about 9 p.m., the fire had spread to the top of Tau Mountain.

At the scene, many fire trucks and firefighters were present to put out the fire. However, due to the difficult terrain of Tau Mountain, the fire trucks could not enter. At the same time, due to the darkness, the firefighters could not bring fire hoses to the top of the mountain to put out the fire.
