Washington designates Mexican cartels Juaréz and Los Viagras as terrorists
The United States has designated the Mexican cartels "Jalisco" and "Los Viagos" as foreign terrorist organizations due to their involvement in violent attacks and assaults, including a massacre in 2019 that resulted in the death of nine Americans in Sonora. The designation includes prohibitions on financial transactions and material or logistical support with these groups, effectively preventing them from accessing the U.S. financial system. This measure is part of Washington's efforts to combat drug trafficking and criminal gangs in the region.
