The team were flying home after their 3-0 defeat by Brazil in the World Cup qualifier on November 10.
Seventy six people - including members of Brazilian football side Chapecoense - have died with only five surviving.

It is thought to have come down in Cerro Gordo in the municipality of La Union, according to Mi Oriente.
