Nine People Killed in One Day as Sinaloa Cartel Factions Clash in Culiacán
A wave of violence has engulfed the city as rival factions of the Sinaloa cartel battle for control. Numerous homicides have been reported in recent weeks, with victims found in various parts of the city.
The streets of Culiacán have once again become a battleground in a bloody cartel feud, with nine people brutally murdered in a single day as the violent conflict between the warring factions of the Sinaloa Cartel spirals out of control. This most recent wave of bloodshed comes in the wake of a month-long clash between two notorious factions—Los Mayitos and Los Chapitos—that has turned the region into a war zone.
In just over five weeks, an astonishing 170 homicides have been recorded in the capital of Sinaloa alone, according to official figures from the state's prosecutor's office. However, unofficial sources paint an even darker picture, claiming the death toll has surpassed 200. These figures underscore the scale of the violence gripping the region, with authorities struggling to maintain order.
