Hanoi houses submerged after typhoon Dianmu

Five days after typhoon Dianmu went through Hanoi, many houses in Tu Lien Ward in Tay Ho District are still flooded.

Local people say their houses are 40-60cm under water.
They cannot use electricity or water. 
People whose houses have a basement have to walk on wooden chairs to enter their houses.

Children wade in black water to go to school.
A school uses boats to pick up students.
Rainwater is withdrawing very slowly, so the flood will last for a few days more.
This is the fourth flooding this year in this area. 


Flooding has largely affected the life of local residents and also caused pollution.
