"I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life"

Father God, thank you for the love of the truth you have given me. Please bless me with the wisdom, knowledge and discernment needed to always present the truth in an attitude of grace and love. Use this blog and Northwoods Ministries for your glory. Help us all to read and to study Your Word without preconceived notions, but rather, let scripture interpret scripture in the presence of the Holy Spirit. All praise to our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.

Sinaloan City Culiacán besieged by organised crime in Narco State

 

Mexico’s city of Culiacán besieged by

organised crime amid violence in Sinaloa state




Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum took office on October 1. She inherits a country where organised crime still rules in many regions, a deadly situation that her predecessor, Andrés Manuel López Obrador, failed to curb. 

More than 30,000 murders are still committed each year, and on average, 29 people disappear every day without a trace. 

The city of Culiacán in the northwestern state of Sinaloa has recently become the symbol of this violent epidemic. 

Our correspondents Laurence Cuvillier, Quentin Duval and Ed Augustin report.
