10 soldiers dead as Mexican military goes to war with cartels in Sinaloa after arrest of El Chapo's son​

19 suspected gang members and 10 military personnel have died so far.

Jan 6, 2023

Residents of the Mexican state of Sinaloa are being told to stay indoors due to waves of cartel violence following the Thursday capture of the highly wanted Ovidio Guzman-Lopez, son of notorious drug trafficker Joaquín Guzman, otherwise known as "El Chapo."

The epicenter of the conflict is in the city of Culiacán, where members of the Sinaloa Cartel put up roadblocks on public streets, set vehicles ablaze, and attacked airports and planes. In 2019, Guzman was arrested but quickly let go due to retaliation by the cartel. The day of his previous arrest became known as "black Thursday" to locals, according to Mexico News Daily.



 
Won't be long before we will need to use our military against the cartels in this country. You had better believe they are taking advantage of our open borders to infiltrate, organize, and arm themselves.
