Several streets in HCMC's Tan Phu District were submerged in reddish, smelly water tinged with chemicals, affecting hundreds of families.

 

Alleys along Phan Anh and To Hieu streets were in knee-deep red water on Sunday, following an hour-long rain. There were oily stains and white foams on the surface, along with smells of chemicals. The water even flowed into certain homes.

 

Tran Thi Huong, 56, who has been living on Phan Anh Street for over 30 years, said it was the first time she saw such a phenomenon. Some people who waded in the water reported itchiness on their legs, forcing them to wear boots, she said.
