Typhoon Yagi Devastates Northern Vietnam: Floods and Landslides Claim 143 Lives

The death toll from Typhoon Yagi in Vietnam has risen to 143, with dozens still missing, as heavy rains continue to unleash landslides and widespread flooding, particularly in the capital, Hanoi. The storm, which made landfall days ago, is the most powerful typhoon to hit the country in decades, bringing 90 mph winds and relentless downpours that have ravaged northern Vietnam.

Typhoon Yagi has caused catastrophic damage, especially in rural areas. A massive landslide buried an entire village in Lao Cai, a mountainous province on the border with China. Video footage from state media showed what was once a bustling hamlet reduced to a barren, muddy wasteland. Rescue teams recovered 22 bodies from the debris. “It’s the most deadly landslide caused by the typhoon so far,” said Nhu Thi Tam, a local official, speaking as she hurried to evacuate her family after receiving another landslide warning.

Hanoi Submerged as Red River Rises

Hanoi, one of Southeast Asia’s most densely populated river valleys, has been hit hard by the continuous rain. The Red River, which flows through the capital, rose at alarming rates, flooding many neighborhoods. Streets typically crowded with motorbikes are now navigable only by boat, as residents struggle to save what they can from their submerged homes.

Nguyen Thi Dung, 52, a lifelong resident of Hanoi, was forced to flee her flooded house. “The water has reached the second floor,” she said as she left, clutching her belongings and pet cat. “Flooding isn’t new here, but this time it came so fast.”

Widespread Devastation Across Northern Provinces

Typhoon Yagi made its initial impact on coastal cities like Haiphong and Quang Ninh, where the destruction has been extensive. Factories have closed, and families are being urged to keep children home from school as the Red River continues to rise.

In Lao Cai, the province worst hit by the storm, 45 people have been confirmed dead, and many more remain missing. Thousands of soldiers have been deployed to assist in search and rescue operations and to manage evacuations, with thousands of residents fleeing to safer areas. Photos shared by the government showed rescue workers helping residents in life vests and evacuating furniture from homes.

In Hanoi, silty floodwaters now reach waist-deep in some areas. Families, uncertain of when the floodwaters will recede, are seeking higher ground. "We have nowhere else to go," said 70-year-old Nguyen Van Tien, sitting in his flooded living room, unsure of when life might return to normal.

A Wake-Up Call for Vietnam

Analysts warn that Typhoon Yagi could be the worst natural disaster in Vietnam in a generation, with climate change likely exacerbating the severity of such storms. Alexander Vuving, a professor at the Asia-Pacific Center for Security Studies, said the psychological impact of the disaster could lead to greater government focus on mitigating the effects of extreme weather.

Meanwhile, Vietnam’s emergency management agency reported that most of the fatalities were caused by landslides and flash floods. Along with the dead and missing, the agency reported over 700 injuries. Concerns are also growing over potential future flooding, as water from overfilled hydropower dams along the Red River is being released into already swollen waterways.

As rescue efforts continue, residents across northern Vietnam are anxiously awaiting clearer skies and wondering how long it will take for life to return to normal.

Although retina scanner can slow down the process with the amount or rather the size of the data, but it also gives us an opportunity of having time to lockout perpetrators. The size of the data makes it at least 70% better than an iris scan and many more folds multiplied compared to a fingerprint.

Several years ago, I foresaw that the mCommerce (mobile commerce) would be ruled out as the mainstay of electronic processing for the sole reason that it is the most affordable business appliance that can serve the majority, representing the poor to medium class and the trending plot of global economic structure just like a triangle.

The number coding of telcos should also compliment tracking effort, narrowed down within the radius and range of a few kilometers apart where the last signal was received or transmitted. The succeeding successful connection recorded by cell sites would enable us to speculate the linear direction as it trends.

We will enable the mobile technology to be a conduit of payment gateways or as a payment gateway itself.

The fact can't be denied that they have been left without an adequate means to tap the convenience and business opportunity through eCommerce.

Binance Users Targeted in SMS Scam, Exchange Warns Against Spoofing Attacks

Last week, users of Binance fell victim to scammers who sent fake SMS messages claiming they had won prizes in the Binance Mystery Box lottery, with rewards valued at around 100 euros in cryptocurrency. The victims were informed that the offer expired the same day and were urgently advised to claim their winnings by clicking on a link in the SMS. Upon clicking the malicious link, victims were prompted to log in to their Binance accounts and provide the necessary passwords. Binance acknowledged that this scheme represents a typical attempt at a spoofing attack through SMS, where attackers manipulate the message sender to appear as if it is coming from a trusted source. The goal is to deceive victims into following instructions, ultimately leading to the theft of confidential data. Binance stated its inability to combat such fraud since the technologies of the GSM communication system, under which SMS messages operate, allow the sender to arbitrarily fill in the "sender name" field. Mobile operators do not verify whether the sender sending the SMS has the legitimate right to use a specific name. "To close this security loophole in SMS, the whole world would have to modify GSM technology, which seems unrealistic to us," concluded Binance. Earlier, the National Agency of Project Management in Uzbekistan (NAPM) announced that the world's largest cryptocurrency exchange, Binance, would be required to pay a fine for operating in the country without a license.

https://bit.ly/46j0QwT - 🚨 Fraudsters are making around $50,000 a day by creating fake accounts on X (formerly Twitter) that impersonate well-known cryptocurrency scam investigators and blockchain security companies. These accounts lure victims with false alerts about breaches on major cryptocurrency exchange platforms, such as Uniswap and Opensea, and encourage swift action to safeguard digital assets. #CryptoScams #OnlineFraud #DigitalSecurity 💻 The scammers use similar account names to legitimate ones, like creating @zacheryxbt to impersonate @zachxbt. These fake accounts have successfully deceived many, including those with large followings on X, leading to widespread sharing of the fraudulent information. The scale of the campaign is significant, with related hashtags like #UniswapExploit trending in the U.S. #ImpersonationScams #SocialMediaFraud #CybersecurityAwareness 🌐 The operation involves directing users to malicious websites, like 'revoketokens[.]io' or 'revokea[.]sh', where victims are tricked into connecting their wallets under the guise of revoking permissions to prevent asset loss. Instead, the scammers drain funds from these connected wallets, a process that is irreversible. #PhishingAttacks #CryptoWalletSecurity #DigitalAssetProtection ⚠️ Impersonating credible sources in the crypto community is a highly effective deception tactic. Previous instances have seen phishing actors impersonate cybersecurity companies and create fake GitHub accounts resembling cybersecurity researchers. The key precaution is double-checking account authenticity and verifying claims from official sources. Additionally, users are advised to avoid connecting their wallets to dubious platforms and signing unfamiliar smart contracts. #CyberImpersonation #VerifySources #SmartContractSafety 🔐 For those concerned about digital asset security, moving assets to a cold wallet can offer enhanced protection against such hacks and breaches. This step ensures that digital currencies are stored offline, away from the reach of online scammers.
