BBC said:A busy bridge in northern Vietnam has collapsed in the wake of super typhoon Yagi, plunging 10 cars and two scooters into the Red River, Deputy Prime Minister Ho Duc Phoc said on Monday.
This photo suggests that the bridge consisted of three steel truss sections supported on abutments at the ends and two piers on the river bed. It looks to me like one of the two piers collapsed, probably undercut by scour exacerbated by the recent flooding.
