At least 30 people died and 20 were injured on Sunday, when a bus swerved off a potholed road into a deep gorge in Peru's central Andes, police said.
The bus was carrying local farmers along a badly deteriorated road some 262 miles (419 km) north of Lima, not far from the central Andean city of Huaraz.
"We understand there are more than 30 people dead. The road is not good, mainly rutted earth flanked by gorges," a police officer said. The exact cause of the accident was not known, he said.
