Overview
- The Foreign Ministry coordinated the Jan. 13 airlift using the FAP presidential aircraft, departing La Paz with a technical stop in La Joya before landing at Lima’s Group 8 air base.
- The flight carried 14 men, 20 women and 4 minors, who received lodging and food from embassy and consular staff prior to departure.
- Two repatriations are now complete: 38 returned by air on Tuesday and 34 traveled overland on Jan. 12 via La Paz–Desaguadero, then to Juliaca in an Army vehicle.
- A previously planned humanitarian flight could not land in La Paz due to force‑majeure issues, leading authorities to activate contingency ground and air options.
- Consular teams continue to assist a reduced number of Peruvians still in La Paz as officials monitor protests over canceled fuel subsidies that have blocked roads, with an emergency line available at +591 70164657.
