New satellite imagery shows dozens of fires burning in a popular tourist area of Mexico on Sunday when a powerful cartel leader was captured and killed by the military.
We’ve verified the images and footage of violence in the resort town of Puerto Vallarta, just one area among dozens where violence has broken out since Nemesio Oseguera Cervantes, known as “El Mencho” died in custody. The Mexican military has deployed nearly 10,000 soldiers to suppress the violence, which has seen shops torched, roadblocks enacted and at least 25 members of the National Guard killed.
We’re also looking into the arrival of the USS Gerald R Ford aircraft carrier in Greece as part of the build up of US military assets in the Middle East and Mediterranean. There are reports the world’s largest warship is experiencing plumbing issues again, though social media accounts have been spreading old videos of flooded toilets.
Plus, our fact-checking team are examining recent claims on the UK’s student finance system and youth unemployment rates. The rest of the team is getting ready to fact check Donald Trump’s State of the Union address later tonight.
