Light aircraft crashes in Peru, killing all 13 aboard

A small aircraft has crashed near Pueblo Viejo airstrip in Nazca, Peru, killing all 13 people on board. The victims include 11 passengers and two crew members. The plane, which had departed from Pisco, caught fire after hitting agricultural land, leaving no survivors. Initial investigations suggest all passengers were tourists en route to a scenic flight over the famous Nazca Lines, the ancient geoglyphs that are among Peru’s most significant archaeological attractions. The circumstances of the crash remain under investigation by authorities. The Nazca Lines, located in southern Peru, are a major tourist destination and are typically viewed from the air, making flights over the site a popular activity for visitors to the region.
