TL;DR Summary

In Guerrero, Mexico, police discovered 11 bodies, including two minors, on a highway amid escalating cartel violence. This follows the recent beheading of Chilpancingo's mayor, Alejandro Arcos, shortly after taking office. The region is plagued by conflict between rival cartels, the Tlacos and the Ardillos. The violence challenges Mexico's previous "hugs, not bullets" strategy, as new President Claudia Sheinbaum appears to adopt a more confrontational approach against cartels, though she avoids fully disowning the previous policy.
