Journalistic report includes news footage for purposes of commentary, criticism and analysis.
The U.S. military—led by the Trump administration—has significantly escalated operations against drug cartels, primarily through “kinetic strikes” and high-profile captures.
In January 2026, Mexico transferred dozens of high-ranking cartel suspects to the U.S. to prevent them from running their “empires” from within Mexican prisons.
the Mexican government has intensified its crackdown on drug cartels, resulting in significant high-level arrests, the expulsion of dozens of cartel leaders to the United States, and intense pressure that has caused some cartel operatives to flee or go into hiding.
The Trump administration has continued to push for more aggressive,, and potentially direct, action against cartels, prompting Mexico to accelerate its own crackdown to avoid U.S. intervention.
While the cartels are under extreme pressure, experts note that the criminal organizations are “deeply rooted,” and previous crackdowns have often led to the splintering of larger groups into smaller, more violent factions. The situation remains highly volatile, with both governments engaged in a high-stakes effort to dismantle these networks.
