Here’s the Summary
- Cartel kingpin killed: Mexico’s most-wanted cartel boss and head of the Jalisco New Generation Cartel, Nemesio “El Mencho” Oseguera Cervantes, was killed alongside eight other cartel members in a Mexican military operation aided by US intelligence support. Twenty-five members of Mexico’s National Guard died during attacks in the state of Jalisco. En español: muerte del Mencho en México
- Wave of violence: The killing sparked widespread unrest, with suspected gang members torching buses and businesses while clashing with security forces. Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum said “peace, security and normalcy” are being maintained across the country.
- Tourists stranded: The US State Department urged American nationals in parts of Mexico to “seek shelter and remain in residences or hotels.” The department is also running a 24/7 crisis hotline for US citizens impacted by the unrest. Other tourists were stranded after several US carriers suspended flights to Puerto Vallarta. Here’s what to do if you’re stranded.
The killing of Jalisco cartel boss Nemesio Oseguera, aka “El Mencho,” could fuel a turf war among drug-trafficking gangs in Mexico, analysts say, with the rival Sinaloa cartel already riven by infighting.
The Jalisco and Sinaloa cartels have long fought to dominate the lucrative US market for illegal drugs, including cocaine, heroin and fentanyl. They also increasingly compete for control of the market for illegal migration into the US.
The US government has described the Jalisco New Generation Cartel (known by the Spanish-language abbreviation CJNG) as “one of the five most dangerous criminal organizations in the world.”
Who takes control of the group, or whether it splinters into factional bloodletting, will have a huge impact on drug trafficking in the Americas.
For a more detailed setting how a Prophecy is now being fulfilled
And upon thy sword shalt thou depend, entering at every place: yet thou shalt be supple and credulous, and be in subjection to thy brother; but it will be that when his sons become evil, and fall from keeping the commandments of the law, thou shalt break his yoke of servitude from off thy neck. Genesis 27:40 Jonathan
“And Esau harbored hatred in his heart against Jacob, his brother, because of the blessing with which his father had blessed him.
“And Esau said in his heart, ‘I will not do as Cain did, who killed Abel during their father’s lifetime and then their father had another son, Seth.
“Rather, I will wait until the days of mourning for my father have passed, and then I will kill Jacob my brother, and I will be the sole heir.’” Genesis 27:41 Jonathan
