Mexico Steps Up World Cup Security
Jalisco New Generation Cartel: Mexico will deploy around 100,000 security personnel to ensure public safety during this year's FIFA World Cup, President Claudia Sheinbaum said on Saturday.
The announcement follows a surge in violence across the country triggered by last month's death of cartel leader Nemesio Oseguera Cervantes, known as "El Mencho," in an army operation, reported Xinhua.
The security plan includes 20,000 soldiers and 55,000 police officers, in addition to members of private security companies. They will be supported by 2,500 military and civilian vehicles, 24 aircraft, anti-drone systems and dogs trained to detect explosives and other substances, officials said.
