Mexican armed forces delivered another blow to drug trafficking cartels before Christmas Day, particularly the Sinaloa Cartel faction known as "La Mayiza."

Concretely, the Navy seized a multi-million dollar facility in the municipality of Corral Viejo, in eastern Sinaloa. The clandestine lab belonged to "La Mayiza," opponents of "Los Chapitos" in the Sinaloa turf wars that erupted after Ismael "El Mayo" Zambada and Joaquín Guzmán López were arrested and extradited to the U.S. back in July.
