Rescuers search for bodies after four children drowned in the water flow of a nearby hydropower plant on Wednesday. In the report, local authorities said the flow hit a group of seven students from Cung Son School who went to the local Ba River to bathe. The released water caused water levels to suddenly rise and wash away four of the seven children. Dang Van Tuan, CEO of the hydropower plant, insisted that the plant’s water release followed an established procedure that has been in place for the past ten years.
