DC MEN TRAPPED IN PUERTO VALLARTA AS CARTEL VIOLENCE ERUPTS ACROSS MEXICO
"The CJNG has no clear succession plan, making a violent internal power struggle across Mexico highly likely in the days and weeks ahead."
After the killing of CJNG leader “El Mencho” triggered coordinated violence across 22 Mexican states—including fires, roadblocks and airport disruptions—WUSA9 reported on Americans sheltering in place as unrest unfolded, citing Global Guardian, which warned that the cartel’s lack of a clear succession plan increases the likelihood of internal power struggles and additional retaliatory violence in the near term. The warning reinforces the need for travelers to closely monitor developments and prepare contingency plans as conditions evolve.
