Health Minister Anibal Velasquez, who was on his way to the crash site near the northern city of Huarmey, says the accident also left 70 people injured.
Authorities initially gave a death toll of 22, but Velasquez told local radio that the number had increased sharply as rescue workers managed to access the wreckage.
