ʻO ka mua, ʻo ia nā kidnappings. A laila hiki mai ka maʻi puaʻa. I kēia manawa, ke hoʻāla nei kahi pū make ma ke kahakai ʻo Acapulco i nā hopohopo hou e pili ana i ka palekana o ka poʻe huakaʻi ma Mexico.
He ʻumikūmāwalu mau kānaka - 16 mau pūʻali koa a me ʻelua mau koa - i make i ka wā o ka pana ʻana ma kahi kaiāulu he mau mile mai ke kahua mākaʻikaʻi nui. ʻEkolu mau mea kū i waena o nā ʻeiwa i ʻeha, akā ʻaʻohe mea mākaʻikaʻi i hōʻeha ʻia, e like me nā hōʻike mua o ka pāpā.
Ua hōʻike ʻia e ka Los Angeles Times he 3,000 mau pana i kī ʻia a he 50 grenades i pahū i ka wā o ka pana ʻehā hola. Ua pili ka hana hoʻomāinoino i ka hoʻomau ʻana o ke aupuni Mekiko i ke kaua kūʻē i nā cartel lāʻau.
Hoʻohui kēia hanana hou i ka papa inoa o nā pilikia e hoʻopilikia nei i ka ʻoihana mākaʻikaʻi Mekiko i kēia makahiki. I Pepeluali, ua hoʻopuka ka US State Department i kahi mākaʻikaʻi huakaʻi no ka pane ʻana i ka piʻi ʻana o ka hana ʻino, ʻo ia hoʻi nā kidnappings, kūʻē i nā haole ma ka ʻāina. Ua hōʻike ka makaʻala i ka hapa nui o ka hana ʻino ma ka ʻaoʻao ʻākau o ka ʻāina.
"Ke komo nei nā kākela lāʻau lapaʻau Mexico i kahi hakakā ikaika - ma waena o lākou iho a me nā pūʻali palekana Mekiko - no ka mālama ʻana i nā ala kalepa narcotics ma ka palena ʻo US-Mexico," i hōʻike ʻia e ka ʻoihana.
Ua hoʻopau wale ka hana ʻino i ka mākaʻikaʻi ma kekahi mau wahi kaulana mua e kipa aku ai, e like me Tijuana.
I ʻApelila, ua hōʻemi nui ka maʻi puaʻa ma Mekiko i ka huakaʻi huakaʻi i nā hōkele e like me Cancun a me Cozumel. Ua kāpae nā moku holo moku i nā kipa ʻana a ua hāʻule pū nā papa mokulele.
ʻO Acapulco, kahi huakaʻi punahele no nā kamaʻāina ʻo Mexico City, ua pale maikaʻi i kēlā ʻino, akā ʻoi aku ka paʻakikī o ke ola ʻana i kēia pā hou. ʻO ka poʻe ʻAmelika, ʻo ia hoʻi, e hopohopo paha i ka hoʻi ʻana i ka hale hoʻomaha a koho paha i nā wahi mahana wela i ʻike ʻia ʻoi aku ka palekana, e like me nā mokupuni ʻo Caribbean.
