"Deadly Acts of Terror: Six Killed in Mexico's Roadside Bombings"

TL;DR Summary
Six security officials have been killed and 12 people injured in a series of roadside bombings in the western state of Jalisco, Mexico. Governor Enrique Alfaro blamed drug-trafficking groups for the attacks, calling them an "act of terror" and an open challenge to the Mexican government. The bombings were set up as a trap for police officers, with eight improvised explosive devices detonating as a police convoy passed. The incident highlights the ongoing struggle with security and powerful criminal groups in Mexico, where both state forces and criminal organizations have a history of enforced disappearances and rights abuses.
