A 30-year-old bridge over the Red River in the northern province of Phu Tho collapsed on Monday, leaving eight missing, according to a statement from the provincial People’s Committee as reported by Reuters.
Authorities have subsequently banned or limited traffic on other bridges across the river, including Chuong Duong Bridge in Hanoi, according to state media reports.
This incident occurred as Typhoon Yagi hit the northern province of the island nation, killing at least 58 people and 40 others missing.
