On March 23rd, a tourist minibus crashed into Peruvian Andes, killing nine people and injuring 15 others. The vehicle was heading to the Regente mountain area when it veered off the road and overturned. Health officials confirmed seven deaths at the scene, and two more in hospitals, with the injured taken to four nearby facilities. The accident happened around 5pm local time on Sunday, about 15km from the snow-capped Regente Peak. Firefighters arrived quickly and set up an emergency triage to sort the victims by injury severity. They stabilized patients on-site before police help transport them to clinics in places like Matukana and Kassapalka. Rescue teams from the health ministry pledged full support for the casualties, including ongoing care through emergency units. Around 25 tours and their guys were on board, though it s still unclear if any foreigners, like British or Irish nationals were among. Some local reports point to foggy weather and an unpaved road through tough terrain as

possible factors in the crash, and investigation is underway to determine the exact cause. Authorities continue to monitor the situation as more details emerge from this remote adventure spot, popular with hikers from Lima.
