Organized crime group Jalisco cartel has imposed a policy of its own as a response to Mexico's "hugs, not bullets." One of the notorious drug cartels has abducted several members of an elite police force in Guanajuato.
Police in Mexico were attacked with weaponized drones from the Mexican drug cartels as they were in the middle of clearing blockades in El Aguaje in April.
The Jalisco New Generation Cartel has reportedly used drones to drop explosives on police, hurting two officers in the western state of Michoacán on Tuesday.
A large gunfight between drug cartels Jalisco New Generation Cartel and Carteles Unidos in Mexico's state of Michoacán broke out last week, killing 27 people.
One of the notorious Mexican cartels is the Jalisco New Cartel Generation, which is known for its aggressive use of violence and its public relations campaigns.
