Mexico: Army Carries out Operation on Sinaloa Cartel, Kills 19 in Ambush | Firstpost America

Mexico's Army gave the deadly Sinaloa Cartel one of its biggest defeats in recent months after 19 suspected cartel members were killed in an overnight ambush. The Mexican military personnel were attacked on October 21 by more than 30 people a few miles outside Sinaloa's state capital Culiacan. In the ensuing ambush, many suspected cartel members also managed to flee. But the Mexican authorities managed to nab one local Cartel leader identified as Edwin Antonio. The latest win for the Mexican army comes at the heels of newly-elected President Claudia Sheinbaum Pardo's new security strategy which continues to face public scrutiny.

Mexico is such a beautiful country, it's sad to see the people suffer from cartel violence.

[No_Transitory]

Mexico's military (not police) but actual military takes care of business. Their marines are absolutely brutal towards the cartels as they should be.

[danid]

It’s like saying Amazon has fired 19 employees

[nolimitstech]

Finally, the president does something about the damn cartels.

[CountryKyle]

19 isn’t a massive blow to a billion dollar organization. And Sinaloa isn’t the cartel to worry about anymore, New generation is

[TrollBot.]

The Cartel isnt going away because its backed by the US

[danielrhodes]

The U.S. should take notes from the president of El Salvador.

[devestv]

I watched a video where the Sinaloa Cartel said the army could not be corrupted like the police. The army should look into the police too.

[Just_Abbagail]

Prayers going up for Mexico. I pray God blesses your land with Peace.

[robertthomasjones]

I used to love going to Mexico, from T J all the way south to the Yucatán. I don’t know many folks who go there anymore

[macdaddyalexis]

If only the u.s would stop allowing freeflow of guns south of the border and tackle its demand for drugs.

[williamangeles]

CIA a is mad they are attacking their workers in Mexico.😂

[Anon]

The average US citizen has no idea what is going on down south

[TBD.]

I don't think the cartels are going away there is just too much money.

[arsevela]

The current Mexican government isn’t interested in a war with the cartel. It’s too smart to make the mistakes from years past. It understands the root cause and will continue to focus on addressing the causes.

[joselegaspi]

I keep saying it, unless you fix the root of the problem (the use of drugs in the US), you will always have someone willing to provide. Otherwise, it won't stop.

[salmartin]

She is doing what it takes right now just to say something good then never again god bless everyone much love

[WootTootZoot]

They should build prisons like the ones in El Salvador.

[mamatalentstv]

It's possible, Let's borrow El Salvador's Strategy

[quiexwr]

Bruh they 100k strong this gonna get messy 😢 pray for Mexico 🇲🇽 🙏
