Originally Published by: Death toll rises after Mexican drug cartel leader killed in US-backed operation Tourists trapped in Puerto Vallarta recount cartel retaliation Major drug lord 'El Mencho' killed in Mexican military operation Four professional soccer matches in Mexico were postponed Sunday after violence flared near Guadalajara — one of the country’s host cities for the 2026 World Cup — in the wake of a military operation that left cartel leader Nemesio Oseguera, known as “El Mencho,” dead. Liga MX officials removed two top-flight fixtures from the schedule — Querétaro’s matchup against Juárez FC in the men’s league and the women’s showdown between Chivas and América — and also called off two second-division contests amid security concerns. The disruption followed operations earlier in the day in Tapalpa, Jalisco, roughly two hours southwest of Guadalajara.
