MEXICO CITY, Feb 23, 2026 (BSS/AFP) - Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum urged citizens on Sunday to remain calm and stay informed following the operation that led to the death of narcotrafficking kingpin Nemesio Oseguera, one of the most-wanted criminals in the country.

"There is absolute coordination with governments in every state; we should keep ourselves informed and stay calm," Sheinbaum wrote on X.

Following the military operation, armed men blocked off multiple highways and burned businesses in the states of Jalisco, Michoacan, Guanajuato, Puebla and Sinaloa.
