During 407 confrontations against criminal groups they have detained 102 and wounded 43


Reporter: Ruben Mosso
Without the support of other agencies, the Secretary of the Marines have registered 407 confrontations direct with organized criminals during which they have killed 670 members of narco trafficking cartels.

From the last six years until today, the group of Special Forces of the Marina has had the task of locating the generators of violence, a mission that has allowed them to capture and neutralize the most important characters of different criminal organizations that spread across the country.

The Naval Institution also coordinates operations carried out in the north of the Republic jointly with the Army, the Federal Police, the Attorney General of the republic and offer support to state prosecutors.

Documents from the Ministry of the Navy reveal that from 2006 to the present, when the war against drug trafficking was declared, 670 criminals died in the 407 direct confrontations, with 43 injured and 102 detained.




During 2010, 2011 and 2017, the greatest number of civilians related to organized crime died in confrontations with the Navy, in the first of the those years there were 109,  124 in 2011, and 108 last year.

Tamaulipas is the State where the most confrontations have taken place with the Navy, in the last 11 years there have been 53 confrontations against cells of the Cartel del Golfo and Los Zetas. In 2010, for example, in the Tamaulipas town of Matamoros, the Navy killed the leader of the Cartel del Golfo, Ezequiel Cardenas Guillen, Tony Tormenta, brother of capo Osiel Cardenas, El Mataamigos.

In that same State, on September 12th of 2012, in Tampico, the Navy captured Jorge Eduardo Costilla, El Coss, leader of the Cartel del Golfo, while on October the 7th of the same year, the Los Zetas leader, Heriberto Lazcano Lazcano, El Lazca, was killed in Sabinas, Coahuila.

Veracruz ranks second in confrontations between sailors and crime groups, the State where Los Zetas dominated, territory that was disputed with the Cartel del Golfo, and that today has a greater presence of CJNG.

Sinaloa is the third State where more battles have been waged by Naval personnel, there have been 17 documented clashes.

The second most spectacular blow by the Navy, after the fall of the leader of Los Zetas Miguel Angel Trevino Morales, El Z-40, on July 15th of 2013, in Anahuac, Nuevo Leon, occurred on February 22nd of 2014, in Mazatlan Sinaloa, where Joaquin El Chapo Guzman, leader of the Sinaloa Cartel was recaptured.

On July 11th of 2015, El Chapo escaped from the maximum security prison of Altiplano, in the State of Mexico, which represented his second escape from a federal prison; On January 8th of 2016, the capo saved his life after a confrontation with the sailors in Los Mochis, Sinaloa, when he was pursued at kilometer 3.5 of the Mexico - Los Mochis - Navojoa highway, when El Chapo was pursued by Federal Police officers.



Morelos registers a single confrontation, but it is one of the most representative in the war against crime. On December 16th 2009, Navy special forces killed Arturo Beltran Leyva, El Barbas, leader of the Beltran Leyva cartel, in an action that killed six more leaders of that criminal group.

Nayarit is one of the States where the confrontations of the Navy against gunmen are increasing, five have occurred; in Tepic, on February 9th, 2017, Naval personnel staged to clashes that led to the downing of leader of the Beltran Leyva cartel, Juan Francisco Patron Sanchez, El H2, and Daniel Isaac Silva Garate, El H 9.

    1. Doesn't matter how you wish to phrase it so you can separate the marines from the rest of the Mexican government the fact is the marines are the showpiece of that corrupt government

  2. 670 criminals taken down. 100 innocent civilians and around 20 or 30 kids as collateral damage.
    This is what happens when the armed forces of any country are called into "protect".

  3. 8:24 that right . I'm with you . They are the very least corrupted institution in Mexico . Every man woman and child by now know what the consequences could be if they get in it . It is a very dangerous game and they enter at their own peril . When the shooting starts they cant sort out the very bad ones from the not so bad ones . "War is hell.

    2. 5:57 . The politically correct term , because in the "judicial system they are presumed innocent until proven guilty. At least that's the way it is in the usa . WTF they don't attempt to detain or stop anybody based on that pre-sumption ? There were probably some criminal killed that could have been taken alive but there has been so much resistance from the deadly cartels . Really now , they designed this game and now the bleeding hearts are crying for them . I am not part of the judicial system and most of the time when the enforcers of the law get in a fire fight I presume they other side is guilty. We all know there are exceptions . Still I am rooting for the marines!

    3. The recently murdered family in Morelos after a "fight" of the Mando Unico against "vicious narco-sicarios" a woman and her 3 kids unarmed, The CRIME OF STATE TANHUATO, MASS MURDER TLATLAYA, The murdered people that did not stop for the blockade, shot because their truck look like a narcos truck, are a few examples of the heroics of the pinch puts soldiers and marinas and the many polizetas posing as fuerza delictiva estatal or federal.
      Don'the wait to make a mess until your family is affected pendejo, not every police officer is a saint on the US, and almost no police officer is honest in mexico, but when it comes to the Mexican military, they are all like their so called Commander in Chief, a bunch of greedy murdering bastards.

  11. My solution is for the govt to go after all the dirtbags that are destroying Mexico along with EPN ignoring all while getting paid by the highest bidder like a WHORE exporting drugs and killing your enemies is one thing but chopping heads off like barbarians high on drugs is another never been before Marcos never worked like that before it was all business.

  12. The marines are not perfect. But they have a group of them that are true patriots and MX heroes. They never take credit for the good that they do while fighting a bloody guerilla war to help protect their country, They are violent but I know first hand that they make every attempt to arrest their targets. These statistics are from the Marines as a whole and take into account attacks ambushes and raids launched against them. That data is skewed. If you were to research their actual apprehension operations you would discover a well trained, honorable core of hard men and women that do a dangerous job with professionalism. Ask any of the thousand or more victims that have been rescued from kidnappers by the marines. You will hear a different side to this.
