Hanoi strictly prohibits overloaded vehicles from traveling on canal banks and the main axis of the Nhue River.

In the past few days, due to the impact of storm No. 3 and the rain and floods after the storm, there has been heavy and very heavy rain in Hanoi, and the water level of the Nhue River has risen.

Currently, the Nhue River dike has been submerged for many days, causing many incidents in the districts. According to forecasts, in the coming days, there is a possibility of continued heavy rain in Hanoi, which could threaten the safety of the Nhue River irrigation system.
