The Folders collection has a FolderRemove event you can subscribe to, but it
doesn't tell you which folder was deleted (it fires after the deletion). If
the folder is deleted and goes to the Deleted Items folder you can catch the
ItemAdd event on the Items collection of that folder but if the user
hard-deletes (Shift+Delete) and bypasses the Deleted Items folder the only
thing you can do is to search all folders that are in existence after the
deletion and see what's missing that was there before.

FolderRemove can not be canceled.
