And who is most likely to be a target?
In 2020, Intelligence Fusion reported over 12,200 incidents in Mexico alone, ranging from murders, cartel skirmishes, armed robberies, and fuel theft among others. One of the most persistent threats in the country has been abductions and kidnappings - and we’ve already mapped 97 such incidents thus far at the start of 2021.
The threat of abduction and kidnapping has evolved over recent years, and while it remains a point of concern for foreigners and business travelers, it now affects a wider section of Mexican society than ever before
Intelligence Fusion's assessment is based on our day-to-day monitoring of the security landscape in Mexico. If you'd like to take a closer look at the intelligence that supports our analysis, get access to a 14-day free trial: https://hubs.ly/H0nk-FG0
