At least 13 people were killed Tuesday when a bus plunged into a ravine in Peru's Ayacucho region, authorities said.

The bus was carrying more than 40 passengers high in the Andes, where such tragedies sadly are not rare.

Another 12 people were injured when the crash took place early Tuesday on Libertadores highway as the bus was traveling from Lima to the city of Ayacucho, the health ministry said in a statement.
