13 dead in Peru plane crash
A small sightseeing plane crashed in the Ica region south of Peru, resulting in the deaths of 13 people onboard, including 11 passengers and two pilots. The incident occurred while the plane was flying over the Nazca Lines archaeological complex, one of the most prominent tourist sites listed as a UNESCO World Heritage site. The Nazca Lines are famous for their giant geoglyphs depicting animals, plants, and geometric shapes that date back to the ancient Nazca civilization, approximately two thousand years ago. Up to now, Peruvian authorities have not disclosed the cause of the crash, and an investigation is ongoing to determine the reasons behind it. Flights over the Nazca Lines are one of the region’s most popular tourist activities, but in the event of accidents, they often result in the deaths of all passengers and crew.
