墨西哥北部锡那罗亚州城市库利亚坎的数千名民众走上街头,要求结束该州两年来的持续暴力冲突1。这场暴力源于锡那罗亚贩毒集团内部两个派系——洛斯查皮托斯和拉马伊萨——之间的血腥战争1,导致谋杀、失踪、敲诈和抢劫事件大幅增加1。此次游行由受害者家属、当地企业、民间社会组织和天主教会共同组织1,旨在纪念冲突爆发两周年1。
暴力冲突对当地造成了严重影响。锡那罗亚州已有超过5000家企业关闭1。其中一起悲剧是,一名一岁男童在枪战中被子弹击中头部而死亡1。州长鲁本·罗查因涉嫌与洛斯查皮托斯合谋贩运毒品,已请假离职两次1。冲突始于两年前伊斯梅尔·"埃尔马约"·桑巴达在美国被捕之后1。
教区主教在库利亚坎主持的弥撒中呼吁交战双方停止暴力1。
Residents of Culiacán, the capital of Mexico's Sinaloa state, took to the streets in a massive demonstration demanding an end to two years of brutal violence stemming from a cartel turf war.1 The conflict between two factions of the Sinaloa drug trafficking organization—Los Chapitos and La Maysa—has triggered a sharp surge in murders, disappearances, extortion, and robbery across the region.1 The demonstration was organized by victims' families, local businesses, civil society groups, and the Catholic Church to mark the anniversary of the violence's outbreak.1
The toll of the ongoing conflict has been severe on the state's economy and population.1 More than 5,000 businesses have shuttered operations in Sinaloa due to the insecurity.1 The violence erupted following the arrest of Ismael "El Mayo" Zambada in the United States two years prior.1 Among the victims has been a one-year-old boy, who was killed after being struck in the head by a bullet during a gunfight.1 A diocesan bishop presided over a mass held in Culiacán calling on the warring factions to cease their violence.1
The crisis has also drawn scrutiny of state leadership, as Governor Rubén Rocha has taken leave from office twice due to allegations that he conspired with Los Chapitos to traffic drugs.1
