Two CIA agents died in a vehicle crash after participating in an unannounced drug lab raid in Mexico, an operation that Mexican President Sheinbaum says violated her country's constitution. The CIA deployed four agents dressed as state police to conduct the raid without federal Mexican government knowledge — the third such covert operation in Chihuahua this year. This exposes a major rift between the Trump administration's push for direct U.S. military involvement against cartels and Mexico's constitutional prohibition on foreign armed agents operating on its soil, a principle rooted in over a century of protecting sovereignty against U.S. intervention.
