Mexico is ablaze with chaos following the death of the world's most wanted drug lord. The capture of Nemesio Cervantes, known as "El Mencho," has ignited a cartel war, unleashing unprecedented violence across the nation. This moment marks a pivotal shift in the battle against international drug trafficking.
- The death of El Mencho has sparked widespread violence across Mexico, with over 250 roadblocks in 20 states.
- A U.S.-backed strike led by Mexican special forces resulted in El Mencho's death, causing turmoil as the CJNG retaliates.
- The unprecedented cooperation between the U.S. and Mexico signals a new era in combating transnational criminal networks.
In a daring raid on February 22nd, Mexican special forces, guided by U.S. intelligence, stormed a mountain town in Jalisco. Their target was Nemesio Cervantes, the notorious leader of the Jalisco New Generation Cartel (CJNG), a group feared for its brutality and reach. Known for pioneering the use of explosive drones and rocket-propelled grenades, El Mencho was a former police officer turned cartel kingpin with a $15 million bounty on his head. The U.S. government had long identified him as the top international drug trafficker, orchestrating a global empire of fentanyl and cocaine.
The raid was intense. Mexican troops faced heavy gunfire, resulting in the deaths of four CJNG members on the spot. El Mencho, critically wounded, was airlifted towards Mexico City but succumbed to his injuries during transit. His death was confirmed by the Mexican Defense Ministry, marking the end of an era for one of the most dangerous men alive. The White House acknowledged the pivotal role of U.S. intelligence in this operation, with President Trump triumphantly posting on Truth Social, "We're winning too much, it's just not fair!"
Yet, the death of El Mencho unleashed a wave of violence across Mexico. The CJNG, a formidable narco-army of 20,000 fighters, retaliated ferociously. Over 250 roadblocks were erected across 20 states, turning cities into battlegrounds. In Puerto Vallarta, vehicles were set ablaze near tourist hotspots, and in Guadalajara, the second-largest city, an eerie silence fell as gunmen stormed the airport, halting flights from major airlines. Military sites were bombed, and in Guanajuato alone, more than 70 attacks were recorded. The violence left at least 14 dead, including seven National Guard troops. The U.S. State Department issued shelter-in-place orders for Americans, underscoring the severity of the situation.
This chaos is a stark reminder of the challenges in dismantling powerful cartels. However, it also highlights an unprecedented level of cooperation between the U.S. and Mexico, led by the Trump administration and Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum. Together, they have extradited 92 high-level cartel members to the U.S., a feat unimaginable under previous administrations. The newly established Joint Interagency Task Force–Counter Cartel, a U.S.-military-led initiative, played a crucial role in this operation, marking a significant shift in strategy.

President Sheinbaum has been critical of the "kingpin strategy," acknowledging its potential to incite violence. However, the extraordinary cooperation between nations is a turning point, reclaiming sovereignty from transnational criminal networks. This is not just about the fall of one drug lord; it's about a fundamental shift in how nations assert control over their territories.
The CJNG's extensive reach, with operatives across North America, showcased their audacity and power. But Sunday's operation declared a new era where the state, backed by unprecedented U.S.-Mexico cooperation, asserts its sovereignty over criminals. While challenges remain, this event will be remembered as the day a nation began reclaiming its sovereignty from the clutches of cartel power, heralding the rise of a new civilizationalist world. National sovereignty is back, and the battle against the cartels is just beginning.
