La Mayiza Consolidates ~90% of Former Chapitos Territory
Reports indicate La Mayiza (Los Mayos faction) has consolidated control over approximately 90% of territory once dominated by Los Chapitos. 'Mayito Flaco' (Ismael Zambada García's son) is positioned to lead a reconstituted Sinaloa Cartel under a new leadership structure. Intelligence analysts note this shift may reduce fentanyl production as Mayos faction historically focused on cocaine and heroin rather than synthetic opioids.
