Mexico's Murdered & Missing: The True Victims of the Drug War

Mexico's drug war, a decades-long conflict between the government and drug cartels, has resulted in a staggering number of murders, disappearances, and human rights violations. The true victims of this war are the ordinary Mexican citizens who have been caught in the crossfire, often paying a terrible price with their lives and well-being. Families are left shattered, communities are torn apart, and entire regions are plagued by violence and fear. The Mexican government's militarised approach to combating drug trafficking has been widely criticised for exacerbating the problem, leading to calls for alternative strategies that prioritise human rights and address the root causes of violence.
