Mexican National Guard Deploys 1,500 Troops To Cancun Amid Cartel Chaos Mexico is deploying National Guard troops to high-end resorts in Cancun down to Tulum amid a spate of cartel shootings that have killed and injured tourists this year.
The Secretary of National Defense, Luis Cresencio Sandoval, reported the creation of the Tourist Security Battalion of the National Guard that will deploy 1,500 Guardsmen “to ensure the tranquility of tourists,” according to Yucatan Times .
The presence of military personnel in the state of Quintana Roo has steadily increased this year as multiple cartels are battling for control of the drug trade.
Weeks ago, cartel gunfire erupted on the beach of a high-end resort in Cancun. Dozens of shots rang out, and two rival cartel members were killed. In October, a cartel shootout killed two female foreign tourists and injured three others. Of the two women who were killed, one was from Germany and the other India.
This week, Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador said the chaos in Cancun “cannot be repeated.” That is why the Tourist Security Battalion will have a permanent presence in the tourist mecca to prevent cartels from expanding operations. “This battalion will provide security to the entire tourist area.
“As the year progresses we will provide it with the tools to do this job, the equipment to be able to attend this new mission and it will also be able to take this model that we will use here for the first time,” Sandoval told the local media outlet. We noted as early as April about “ crisis in paradise ” as cartels raced to secure the drug trade in Tulum as popular Instagram influencers and millennials flooded beaches, resorts, clubs, cenotes, and the Mayan ruins.
Tulum is undergoing a dangerous turf war among drug cartels. Six cartels operate in the area, including the powerful Jalisco New Generation Cartel, the Zetas Vieja Escuela (Old School Zetas), and the Sinaloa Cartel. Cartels are fighting for control because supplying party drugs to millennials on holiday is a lucrative business.

They’re Trying to Shut Us Down
Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.
For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We have a Giving Fuel page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.
Thank you and God bless!
