The defense ministry's Chemical Command is cleaning up A So airport in Thua Thien Hue Province of dioxin contamination left from the Vietnam War.

 

Situated in A Luoi District, 100 km from the town of Hue, the country’s imperial capital, the airport was built by the U.S. in the 1960s.

 

Between August 1965 and December 1970 A Luoi District was among the places where the U.S. sprayed Agent Orange most intensively.
