On 27 May 2025, eight Guardia Nacional (GN) personnel assigned to the Fuerza de reacción inmediata (FERI), an immediate reaction special force team, were killed when their armored vehicle ran over an artisanal landmine, in Los Reyes, Michoacán. The officials were in the area as part of ongoing counter-cartel operations. The region is contested and contains several active cartel factions including the Cártel Jalisco Nueva Generación (CJNG), Cárteles Unidos, and La Nueva Familia Michoacana. The area, near the border of Michoacán and Jalisco, has been an active incubator of cartel explosive devices and related tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs).
