Mexico City's Head of Government, Clara Brugada Molina, led the first Metropolitan Drill 2026, which for the first time coordinated efforts between Mexico City and the State of Mexico for a simulated 7.2 magnitude earthquake with epicenter in Oaxaca. The alert activated at 11:00 a.m. on loudspeakers and mobile devices, with reduced volume on phones at President Claudia Sheinbaum's request. No injuries were reported during the exercise.
