The state governments of Puebla and Veracruz held their Second Security Coordination Meeting in Xalapa to enhance cooperation and combat crime. The initiative focuses on improving information exchange and implementing joint strategies across 33 municipalities located on the border between the two states. 

By targeting these specific territorial boundaries, authorities aim to prevent criminal groups from moving undetected or evading justice. The coordination involves representatives from the General Prosecutor's Offices of both states, alongside federal institutions including the military and the National Guard.
