Plane crash in Peru kills 13 people on tourist flight

A small plane carrying 13 people, including 11 foreign tourists and two crew members, crashed near the city of Nazca in Peru on Saturday, killing all aboard. The victims included seven Italians, two Spaniards, two Germans, and both pilots. The Cessna Caravan C-208 aircraft, operated by local airline Aerodiana, took off from Pisco Airport and crashed approximately 6 kilometers from Nazca, near the Socos area. The crash occurred after the crew reported an emergency situation to air traffic control, losing radio contact shortly afterward. The plane caught fire upon impact, preventing rescue efforts. Authorities have launched an investigation into the cause of the crash, while the government considers temporarily suspending the airport. Flights over the Nazca Lines had already been suspended earlier due to strong winds.

Bias read (Center): The article presents factual information about the crash, quoting official statements from Peru's Ministry of Transport and Communications, as well as mentioning the government's consideration of airport closure. There is no overt ideological framing or emphasis on specific political perspectives. S
