Third Fatal Tourist-Plane Crash at Peru's Nazca Lines Since 2010

A small tourist plane crashed over Peru's Nazca Lines on Saturday, killing all 13 aboard — 11 passengers and two pilots. Four bodies were recovered; the cause and identities remain unknown. It is the third fatal scenic-flight crash at the UNESCO World Heritage site since 2010, following incidents in 2022 (7 dead) and 2010 (6 dead), raising fresh questions about oversight of Nazca overflights.
