The Secretariat of National Defense reported on the operation carried out this morning by federal forces, which resulted in various blockades and other reactions.
There is absolute coordination with the governments of all states; we must remain informed and calm.
The social media accounts of the Security Cabinet provide permanent updates. In the vast majority of the national territory, activities are proceeding with complete normality.
My recognition to the Mexican Army, National Guard, Armed Forces, and Security Cabinet.
We work every day for peace, security, justice, and the well-being of Mexico.
