Death toll rises to 11 in northern Vietnam floods


(MENAFN- Saudi Press Agency) The death toll rose to 11 in record floods in northern Vietnam, with at least six people still missing, authorities said
Tuesday, according to dpa.

The latest victims include a mother and son whose house collapsed and
buried them, according to Quang Ninh provincial department of
agriculture.

'The possibility to find the six alive is very small,' said Nguyen

thousands of people have fled to safety, authorities said.
