El Mencho Killed in Federal Operation, Violence Erupts
The leader of the powerful Jalisco New Generation Cartel, Nemesio “El Mencho” Oseguera Cervantes, was killed on Sunday during an operation led by Mexico’s military. This operation triggered a series of violent events across the state of Jalisco and spread to other states, with suspected cartel members blocking roads and setting fires. The US State Department issued a travel advisory urging citizens to shelter in place due to ongoing security operations and related criminal activity.
