Скачать или смотреть ICE Arrested 1000+ Mexican Cartel Group in Massive Crackdown & Destroyed Border Routes

Before sunrise along the U.S.–Mexico border, federal command centers launched one of the largest coordinated enforcement campaigns ever directed at cartel logistics operating inside and around the United States. According to federal officials, intelligence revealed cartel-linked smuggling networks had escalated to placing cash bounties on U.S. law enforcement personnel, including ICE agents and Border Patrol supervisors. That threat triggered a decisive response.
In a multi-agency operation involving ICE Homeland Security Investigations, the FBI, DEA, Customs and Border Protection, the U.S. Coast Guard, and state and local task forces, federal authorities targeted cartel smuggling routes across Texas, Arizona, New Mexico, and California. The campaign, known to officials as Operation Shield Frontier, focused on dismantling logistics cells responsible for moving narcotics, money, and people across the border.
Within weeks, more than 1,000 suspects were arrested in targeted operations tied to known trafficking corridors, stash locations, transport coordinators, and financial handlers. These were not random encounters. Federal officials say arrests were driven by months of intelligence, surveillance, and financial analysis designed to cripple cartel infrastructure rather than simply displace it.
Along land routes, joint task forces disrupted long-used crossing zones, deployed overlapping patrols, and tracked smuggling vehicles before they reached staging points. At sea, Coast Guard-led interdiction teams intercepted vessels along maritime corridors, seizing narcotics before they reached U.S. distribution hubs. Each seizure produced intelligence that allowed investigators to identify higher-level coordinators and financiers.
Inside the United States, ICE Homeland Security Investigations followed the networks inward, targeting stash houses, document fraud operations, money couriers, and shell accounts used to move cartel profits. Federal officials confirmed hundreds of financial accounts were frozen or seized, cutting off the cash flow that sustains cartel violence and corruption.
Authorities report that the operation led to a measurable decline in illegal crossings and cartel-linked violence in several border sectors. However, federal agencies warn that cartels are adaptive and continue to attempt rerouting operations through alternative corridors. As a result, enforcement pressure remains active, with additional arrests and indictments expected.
