During the raid, the leader of the CJNG cartel, 'El Mencho,' was killed, triggering widespread violence and clashes across eight Mexican states.El Mencho's killing comes as a major win for the Sheinbaum government and is a plus point for Mexico's ties with its neighbour, the United States, especially amid US President Donald Trump's constant tariff threats. However, the killing of the drug lord, who had a bounty worth $15 million on his head, may bring a fresh wave of violence across Mexico.Shortly after this death, his cartel, CJNG, has vowed retaliation and response, resorting to widespread violence across eight states. Schools have been shut, flights to and from Puerto Vallarta and Guadalajara have been cancelled and highways have been blocked by gunmen and torched vehicles.
