Cartel Infighting and Betrayals Escalate, Mexican Authorities Claim In New Report

A recent report from Mexican authorities highlights the escalating infighting and betrayals within drug cartels, particularly as La Mayiza gains power. The report reveals that heavy losses have prompted several members of Los Chapitos to defect and join the faction led by Ismael Zambada Sicairos, known as 'Mayito Flaco.' This shift in allegiance not only underscores the instability within these criminal organizations but also raises concerns about the potential for increased violence and disruption in the region, affecting both law enforcement efforts and local communities.
