Mexicali authorities seize 120kg of fentanyl linked to Los Rusos

Mexican security authorities, led by Secretary of Security Omar García Harfuch, seized 120 kilograms of fentanyl pills in Mexicali, Baja California. The operation, which yielded more than 4 million doses, targeted a property in the Hacienda del Bosque neighborhood linked to the criminal group known as Los Rusos.

Los Rusos is identified as an armed faction of the Sinaloa Cartel associated with Ismael 'El Mayo' Zambada. The raid was conducted through intelligence sharing with the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) and involved multiple Mexican agencies, including the FGR, SEDENA, SEMAR, and the SSPC.

In addition to the fentanyl, authorities seized a firearm, a magazine, a vehicle, and a quad bike. No arrests were reported as a direct result of this specific seizure operation.
