A Mexican drug baron - known as the new El Chapo - is accused of ordering the murder of pregnant women and babies in an escalating cocaine cartel war. Nemesio Osegura Cervantes, 'El Mencho', has picked up where the infamous Joaquin Guzman, formerly El Chapo, left off, according to federal investigators. His feared Jalisco Nueva Generacion (CJNG) are suspected of running drugs over land and sea into the United States while fighting a bloody war and indiscriminately killing women and children. Recent footage showed foot soldiers suspected of belonging to CJNG wearing terrifying clown masks and brandishing weapons in Tamaulipas state close to the border. Last month 44 corpses - many of them belonging to women - were hauled from a well in Jalisco state where CJNG is headquartered. 😱 #WANTED DEAD OR ALIVE 👮🏻‍♂️

Authorities in Southern Mexico detained hundreds of African, Caribbean and Central American migrants who were heading north Sunday as part of an up to 2,000-person caravan aiming to reach the United States. The group set out before sunrise Saturday from the town of Tapachula, Mexico, where many had been marooned for months unsuccessfully trying to get transit visas. They carried heavy backpacks, babies and parcels on their heads. Just before dusk, after having trudged more than 20 miles north, they were surrounded by hundreds of National Guard agents and police who persuaded the exhausted migrants to board vans back to Tapachula. Children cried, and women complained angrily about waiting months for papers. It was unclear if any would be deported.
