President Claudia Sheinbaum ordered a full investigation into a shooting at the Teotihuacán archaeological site. Sheinbaum also demanded explanations after four U.S. officials died following an operation in Chihuahua. Sheinbaum said her government received no prior notification of any joint U.S.-Mexican operation in Chihuahua. Sheinbaum ordered federal authorities to investigate and said Mexico will seek answers about U.S. activities on Mexican soil, a move that could strain U.S.-Mexico security cooperation on anti-cartel operations.
