Strikes against Mexican drug cartels are 'absolutely' still on the table, says former President Trump

US federal agents arrested the leader of Mexico's Sinaloa cartel, Ismael "El Mayo" Zambada, and Joaquin Guzman Lopez, the son of his jailed ex-partner, Joaquín "El Chapo" Guzman, in Texas on Thursday.

Zambada and Lopez face multiple charges for allegedly running the cartel's operations, including "its deadly fentanyl manufacturing and trafficking networks."

The FBI agents detained the suspected drug lords after they tricked them into boarding a plane to El Paso. However, one of the men is said to have been unaware that they were on their way to the US.

Federal prosecutors charged Zambada in February with conspiracy to produce and distribute fentanyl, the leading cause of death among Americans between the ages of 18 and 45.

According to the Drug Enforcement Administration, Zambada co-founded the Sinaloa cartel with El Chapo, co-headed it for 30 years, and controlled one of the cartel's four factions.

Lopez is one of El Chapo's four sons who took over control of their father's Sinaloa cartel faction. The Sinaloa cartel reportedly traffics drugs to more than 50 countries.
