The Federal Attorney General’s Office for Environmental Protection (Profepa) and the Attorney General’s Office (FGR) carried out a search at a home in the municipality of Nonoava, Chihuahua. At the scene they secured two Bengal tigers – a male and a female – that were in apparent good physical condition. There were no arrests.

Operational in Nonoava

The operation arose from a request from the Federal Public Ministry for Profepa, headed by Mariana Boy Tamborrell, to participate in the search due to the suspicion that there were specimens of wildlife in the property. Upon arrival, the elements found the cats without identifying markings. They were secured and transferred to a wildlife management property in the same entity, which has infrastructure and technical personnel for their care.

The Bengal tiger is a species native to Asia, threatened by illegal hunting – for its skin, head, fangs, paws and claws – and by the destruction of its habitat. It is internationally protected and appears in Appendix I of the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES). It belongs to one of the six existing subspecies, which include the Sumatran, Amur, Indochinese, Chinese and Malayan tiger, with genetic variations such as white, gold and blue.

Profepa reported that it will continue to collaborate with the FGR in the investigation and will monitor the health status of the specimens.

The Security Cabinet has arrested Colombian citizens linked to the training and manufacturing of improvised explosive devices in Michoacán. This was reported by the Secretary of Security and Citizen Protection, Omar García Harfuch, during the morning conference on Friday, July 3 in Morelia.

These arrests are part of investigations that identified the entry of several people involved into the country, mainly through the Mexico City International Airport and other air entry points. The National Intelligence Center monitored these movements.

The entry of foreign people by land was also detected, who allegedly collaborate in the training of members of criminal groups to install these devices. García Harfuch pointed out that there is an ongoing investigation to locate the leaders of these networks in Michoacán, including alleged high-level members of the Jalisco Nueva Generación Cartel.

The head of the SSPC confirmed the participation of citizens from different countries, mainly from Colombia. We are working in coordination with Colombian authorities to strengthen the investigations. In the coming days, the exact number of people arrested related to the manufacture and use of these explosives will be specified.

PRI warns about digital fraud and demands greater action

The Institutional Revolutionary Party (PRI) in the Senate warned about the increase in telephone fraud and extortion in Mexico. He pointed out that these digital crimes affect the assets and security of millions of families.

PRI legislators detailed that criminal organizations have perfected their methods. They use techniques such as phishing, smishing, vishing, cloning of messaging accounts, kidnapping simulations, fake job offers and artificial intelligence to create manipulated audio and videos that facilitate deception.

Given this panorama, the PRI called on federal and state authorities to strengthen prevention, investigation and combat strategies against these behaviors. He emphasized the need to implement more effective measures to protect citizens.

The growing concern for security has led the party to demand a more rigorous approach in the fight against these crimes that affect the tranquility of the population.

T-MEC: No extension until 2042, stable markets

The United States decided not to extend the validity of the USMCA until 2042. The treaty will remain in force until 2036 with annual reviews. The decision did not generate turbulence in the financial markets. Analysts were already anticipating this scenario, according to the Mexico organization How are we doing?

In its report ‘The T-MEC is still in force’, the organization detailed that annual reviews were a possibility contemplated. Therefore, variables such as the exchange rate did not show negative reactions. On July 1, the peso stood at 17.54 units per dollar, with no relevant movements after the announcement.

Productive integration in North America is key. Mexico maintains its role as the main supplier of fresh fruits and vegetables to the United States. This strengthens regional food security, especially in the agri-food sector.

Looking ahead to the next negotiations, the central issues will be the reduction of tariffs, the defense of the rules of origin and access to agricultural markets. The United States will seek to reduce its trade deficit, while Canada will try to protect its key sectors.
