Mexican armed forces have carried out a large number of operations that have dealt a significant blow to the organizational structure of the Cártel Jalisco Nueva Generación (CJNG), led by Nemesio Oseguera Cervantes, also known as "El Mencho."
While factions of the Sinaloa cartel continue an internal war for control of the criminal organization, the cartel led by El Mencho has steadily consolidated itself as the most powerful group in the country, becoming the first cartel in history to have a presence in all 32 Mexican states.
