Federal and state authorities restored dialogue with communities in Chilapa, Guerrero, following an escalation of violence attributed to criminal groups that caused displacements.
The government of Guerrero, in coordination with federal authorities, held community assemblies in Alcozacán and Coatzingo to build peace agreements. Subsecretary Francisco Rodríguez Cisneros and Secretary Daniel Ledesma Osuna led the meetings, where they emphasized their exclusive commitment to the legal population.
Operations included the deployment of 690 Army elements, 400 National Guard members and 200 state police. Blocked roads were cleared and displaced families received supplies and medical care.
President Claudia Sheinbaum and Secretary Omar García Harfuch explained that a direct confrontation was avoided to minimize risks to civilians. The attacks, which began on May 6 and were attributed to Los Ardillos in dispute with Los Tlacos, generated videos of residents asking for help.
Rosa Icela Rodríguez visited the area this Tuesday to coordinate the comprehensive response alongside Governor Evelyn Salgado Pineda.
