So far, at least, three (3) people have been rescued and thirteen (13) are missing after the Phong Chau bridge in Phu Tho province collapsed, Mr Phoc further revealed.
It remains unknown whether there have been any deaths.
Asia’s strongest storm this year, Yagi, has killed more than sixty (60) people in Vietnam since it made landfall on Saturday.
A portion of the 375-metre (1230 feet) bridge is still standing. The military has been ordered to construct a pontoon bridge immediately.
