TOPSHOT - A bus set on fire by organised crime groups in response to an operation in Jalisco to arrest a high-priority security target, burns at one of the main avenues in Zapopan, state of Jalisco, Mexico, on February 22, 2026. Armed civilians blocked several roads in the state of Jalisco, in western Mexico, following an operation by federal forces in the town of Tapalpa, local authorities reported. Jalisco, which will host four matches of the upcoming 2026 World Cup, is home to the powerful Jalisco New Generation Cartel (CJNG), and has been rocked by several episodes of violence in recent years.
