President Claudia Sheinbaum heads morning conference from Zacatecas with Security Cabinet

Omar García Harfuch, the secretary of Security, stated that the explosion involved 200 kilograms of explosive material placed in a stolen vehicle from Jalisco. The blast was linked to a dispute between the Cartel Jalisco New Generation and the Cartel de Sinaloa or the Pacific Cartel. Three individuals, including Juan Pedro “N”, were arrested in connection with the explosion, which left 11 people injured. Additionally, the Secretariat of National Defense explained that drones dropped by the United States on the Mexico-U.S. border belong to networks of traffickers who use them to monitor routes for migrating people. The administration also noted a reduction in homicides in Zacatecas, reporting an 85 percent decrease from September 2024 to August. Mexico formally requested that the United States detain Linda Cristina Pereyra for extradition due to her suspected participation in a corruption network.
