Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum said Monday that U.S. forces did not participate in the operation that resulted in the death of cartel boss Nemesio Oseguera.

Oseguera, known as ‘El Mencho,’ was killed during a military operation in the western state of Jalisco, sparking a wave of cartel violence across more than a dozen states.

Sheinbaum said blockades had been cleared and “calm” was returning in the wake of El Mencho’s death, and that the government had set up a national command centre to maintain peace throughout the country.

“Today there is more calm, and there is government, there are armed forces, there is a security cabinet and there is a lot of coordination. So, you can rest assured that peace, security and normality in the country are being safeguarded,” she said.

Mexico’s security minister said 25 National Guard members had been killed, as well as one security guard and a state prosecutor’s office employee in retaliatory attacks.
