Mexico Demands Answers After Two CIA Agents Die in Chihuahua Car Crash

Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum is investigating the deaths of two U.S. officials in the state of Chihuahua. The officials were reportedly CIA agents who died in a car crash after a joint raid on drug labs. President Sheinbaum stated that the Mexican government was not informed about the presence of these agents. She is now looking into whether their activities violated Mexico's national sovereignty or constitutional laws. Mexico has formally requested an explanation from the United States regarding the authorization of these agents to operate within the country. The crash also killed two Mexican officers who were traveling with the U.S. officials. This incident has raised concerns about how much intelligence cooperation happens between the two nations without official oversight.
