Mexico says security situation has ‘stabilized’

The Mexican Embassy in the U.S. said Tuesday the security situation in Mexico has “stabilized,” two days after a prominent cartel leader was killed by the Mexican army. 

“The security situation has now stabilized following targeted operations in Jalisco,” the embassy wrote on social platform X, referencing the killing of Nemesio Rubén Oseguera Cervantes, or “El Mencho,” the leader of the Jalisco New Generation Cartel. The New York Times reported Monday that the CIA provided key intelligence on Cervantes’ location ahead of his killing. 

“Federal and State authorities are proceeding to reopen transit corridors and restore public services smoothly,” the embassy added. “Airline operations are normal, and international carriers are resuming flights today. Puerto Vallarta International Airport [in Jalisco] has reopened to domestic traffic.”

After the Mexican army killed Cervantes, violent clashes erupted in parts of western Mexico. Social media videos showed plumes of smoke billowing over Puerto Vallarta, Jalisco, and people sprinting through Guadalajara International Airport in Jalisco. 

The Security Cabinet of the Government of Mexico also reported 21 active highway blockades as of midday Sunday.

The U.S. Embassy in Mexico issued a shelter-in-place warning Sunday for U.S. citizens in Jalisco, Tamulipas and parts of Michoacán, Guerrero and Nuevo Leon. The embassy’s advisory late Monday told Americans to shelter in place in Jalisco and Nayarit, while the situation has “returned to normal” in states such as Baja California, Colima, Leon, Veracruz and Quintana Roo. 

The advisory notes that U.S. citizens in Jalisco and Nayarit should “minimize unnecessary movements,” avoid areas around law enforcement activity, monitor @CAPUFE on X for the status of road closures, monitor local media for updates, follow the directions of local authorities, call 9-1-1 in case of emergency and keep in touch with family and friends. 

Tuesday morning, Jalisco Governor Pablo Lemus Navarro wrote on X that public transportation “is operating normally” throughout the state. He added that the Mercado de Abastos is operating normally, self-service stores and convenience stores are opening regularly and bank branches of “all financial institutions” would open shortly. 

“My recognition to the transporters, service providers, workers, businesspeople, and society in general. Together, we will recover our state and our city,” Navarro concluded. 

Current State Department guidance says U.S. citizens should not travel to the states of Colima, Guerrero, Michoacán, Sinaloa, Tamaulipas and Zacatecas. They should also reconsider travel to Baja California, Chiapas, Chihuahua, Guanajuato, Jalisco and Morelos.

The office of Mexican Secretary of the Navy Raymundo Pedro Morales Ángeles also wrote online Tuesday afternoon the branch is intensifying our operational presence” in the Jalisco region. Over 100 Mexican Marine Corps personnel arrived in Puerto Vallarta to “join the surveillance and prevention operations.”

“Through maritime, aerial, and ground patrols, we deter criminal acts and protect the public, in coordination with the three levels of government,” the office added.
