Vietnam landslides kill seven
Seven people, including three from a single family, have been killed and another three are missing after Typhoon Vicente triggered landslides and flash floods in Vietnam.
Landslides following heavy rains buried a 28-year-old woman, her five-year-old daughter and four-month-old son early yesterday while they were sleeping in their home, official Lai Thanh Huyen of the northern Tuyen Quang province said.
Four people were also killed in landslides in the neighbouring province of Ha Giang, the Tuoi Tre newspaper reported.
It added flash floods have left three other people missing elsewhere in the region.
Vicente injured dozens and grounded planes in Hong Kong earlier in the week.
