- 6 years ago
A South Korean medical team is in Laos to help with recovery efforts following the recent collapse of a dam and the subsequent flooding.
Over the next 10 days, the 15 doctors and five support staff will treat displaced residents of Attapeu Province and help prevent the spread of contagious diseases.
More than 130 people are still missing after last week's dam collapse, which has so far claimed nearly 30 lives.
The cause of the incident is still unknown.
The dam was built by a joint venture that included two Korean companies.
