Ragarding the road from Rt 13N east via Ban Xon to Xaysomboun, best to stay off it now. There's reported fighting in the area of Ban Lak Sam Sip Sam, about 15 km before you get to Ban Xon/Khoua Lek.

Any info if this has something to do with the plans to fill the new Nam Ngum 2 reservoir earlier than planned? Filling the reservoir will cut of/flood part of the road and the area, at least for as far I have been told.

Anyone got any update on the situation in this area, and the road flooding? Thinking of a loop up and around Nam Ngum for a few days, so wondering if it's a doable weekender.
