The U.S. offers $10 million for information on Sinaloa Cartel leaders controlling a key trafficking corridor that moves fentanyl and other drugs into Southern California.

- Coordinated with U.S. prosecutors and the DEA, the reward effort follows retaliatory attacks across 20 of Mexico's 32 states, some reaching Tijuana.
- Last year, the Trump Administration designated the Sinaloa Cartel as both an FTO and SDGT, and Mexican forces killed Oseguera Cervantes during a Sunday operation with U.S. support.
