Amid prolonged heavy rains, rising river and stream levels, and the risk of flash floods and landslides in many border areas, the Quang Tri Border Guard Command has implemented response measures under the “four on-the-spot” motto, maintaining personnel and vehicles on 24-hour standby. Local teams have stepped up inspections of areas at risk of landslides, flooding and isolation, while coordinating with local authorities to disseminate information and encourage residents to take preventive measures and be ready for evacuation when necessary. As of noon on September 13, 2026, the Lao Bao International Border Gate Border Guard Station and the A Vao Border Guard Station had coordinated efforts to evacuate 143 households, comprising 460 people, from dangerous areas to safe shelters at the units.
