Mexican army operation in Michoacán
The Mexican army launched a major operation in Michoacán targeting CJNG leader Heraclio Guerrero Martínez, known as 'El Tio Laco,' who remains at large. Following the operation, CJNG members reportedly set up over 20 narcotic blockades in northern Michoacán, and nine suspected members were arrested.
Why it matters
This operation highlights ongoing efforts by Mexican authorities to dismantle CJNG leadership, but the blockades demonstrate the cartel's ability to disrupt security operations in the region.
What's unclear
- The current status of Heraclio Guerrero Martínez is unclear.
- The exact locations and duration of the blockades are not specified.
- The identities of the arrested individuals beyond two names are not provided.
