DEFENSE

The Mexican army has killed Nemesio Rubén Oseguera Cervantes, known as El Mencho, leader of the Jalisco New Generation Cartel, during a military operation in Jalisco. This operation follows increased security measures and resulted in immediate violence across the region, including roadblocks and flight suspensions to Puerto Vallarta.

El Mencho had evaded capture for over a decade and was considered one of the world's most wanted drug lords. His death raises concerns about potential cartel infighting and its impact on drug trafficking.
