A major train derailment has occurred in Mexico, resulting in 13 fatalities and 98 injuries. The incident took place on the Interoceanic railway line in Jalisco. President Claudia Sheinbaum has stated that the priority is to assist the victims and their families. The government has announced an initial support payment of 30,000 pesos to the families of the deceased and injured. Investigations by the Attorney General's Office have begun to determine the causes of the accident. Preliminary reports suggest poor planning and technical failures may have been contributing factors, as warnings about deficiencies in this section of the track had been issued as early as 2019.
