The hometown of jailed drug lord Joaquin "El Chapo" Guzman has been hit in attacks by explosive-laden drones, the governor of the northwest Mexican state of Sinaloa said on Tuesday.

Authorities did not specify when the strikes on Badiraguato, Guzman's birthplace and the historical stronghold of drug trafficking in Mexico, took place. Displaced residents said attacks in the region began in September.

Dozens of residents were forced to leave the area, Governor Ruben Rocha Moya told a news conference.

"Drones were indeed used," Rocha said, adding that displaced people were being assisted by the government.

Cartels and other criminal organizations in Mexico have increasingly used drones in attacks against rival groups or authorities.

The Jalisco New Generation Cartel (CJNG) has been using drones since 2020, according to a report by the Insight Crime think tank.

Some of the displaced, who wished to remain anonymous, told AFP that the most recent attacks targeted the La Tuna farm that belongs to Guzman's family.

Other properties were also targeted, according to witnesses who said that more than 80 families were threatened by armed groups.

The latest drone attacks began on September 16, according to a resident of Bacacoragua, one of the municipalities of Badiraguato, who left her village in early October.

Villagers said they heard the cartel screaming “Arriba Arriba andele andele” like speedy gonzales as they ran away.
