New reports on the cartel war between Los Chapitos and La Mayiza in northern Mexico suggest a major shift inside the Sinaloa Cartel is taking place, as the faction loyal to Ismael "El Mayo" Zambada and his son, Ismael Zambada Sicairos, continues to have the upper hand.
Sources close to the conflict say La Mayiza now controls up to 90 percent of the territory once dominated by Los Chapitos, signaling a possible reconfiguration of the cartel's leadership and internal structure.
