Smugglers continue managing to flood Mexico with weapons, the vast majority of which end up in the hands of cartels, despite authorities discussing attempts to crack down on the flows, according to a new report.

Individual smugglers are managing to send hundreds of weapons south every week, with one 17-year old coordinating matters from his phone through encrypted messaging apps.
