<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">An internal memo revealed that Mexican cartel leaders authorized kamikaze drone attacks against U.S. Border Patrol personnel, escalating tensions amid the increased federal efforts to secure the southern border.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">According to a report by the New York Post, the newly </span><a href="https://nypost.com/2025/02/03/us-news/mexican-cartels-order-suicide-drone-attacks-on-border-patrol/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">revealed</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> memo warns that cartel leaders are equipping drones with explosives to target U.S. Border Patrol and Department of Defense personnel. The document urges agents “to remain cognizant of their surroundings at all times” as federal authorities bolster border security.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The memo, titled “Officer Safety Alert,” also instructs agents to carry first aid supplies and swiftly report drone sightings, noting that rifles “should be readily available.” Social media posts linked to the cartels have reportedly encouraged even more aggressive actions, including threats against law enforcement and interference with official vehicles.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">These threats come after President Trump deployed 1,500 troops to the southern border, with plans to expand the number to 10,000 to reinforce immigration enforcement at the border. Border czar Tom Homan led deportation raids across the nation aimed at criminal migrants, with a <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/news/latino/ice-trump-deportations-numbers-rcna188937">reported</a> 1,200 deportations in just one day. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“It is recommended that all US Border Patrol agents and DoD personnel working along the border report any sighting of drones to their respective leadership staff and the EPT-IOC,” the memo continues.</span></p>
<p>Cartels have been using drones to great effect against law enforcement in Mexico, with DroneXL <a href="https://dronexl.co/2025/02/03/mexican-cartels-drone-warfare-border-patrol/">reporting</a>, &#8220;In 2023, over 260 drone-dropped bomb incidents were reported in Mexico, resulting in injuries to 42 security personnel.&#8221;</p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Beyond this tactic, online postings have revealed additional steps intended to undermine law enforcement by cartels</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Some messages openly advocate harmful and demeaning acts aimed at federal agents, including directives to “spit and urinate” in Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials’ meals, “defecate” in their vehicles, and target them with assassins, </span><a href="https://www.newsnationnow.com/us-news/immigration/ice-agents-escalating-threats-violence/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">reported</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> News Nation. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Regardless of the potential cartel retaliation, the Trump administration remains committed to preventing illicit narcotics and human trafficking via the southern border, while taking steps to protect CBP personnel and U.S. law enforcement officers Tom Homan said. </span></p>
