Historical Context
Operativa Yogurt is identified in reporting as a CJNG-linked faction operating within Fuerzas Especiales Mencho (FEM), a name associated with the organization led by Nemesio Oseguera Cervantes (“El Mencho”).
The alias “El Yogurt” is linked to Abraham Jesús Ambriz Cano, described in open-source reporting as a rising CJNG operator who defected from Los Viagras—formerly part of the Cárteles Unidos alliance—around 2022. His reported value to the organization stemmed primarily from logistics and trafficking-route development toward the United States rather than conventional battlefield leadership.
Sources place activity tied to Operativa Yogurt across Jalisco, Colima, Quintana Roo, and the mountainous regions of Michoacán, and note recruitment that allegedly included individuals with prior military experience from Colombia and Guatemala, contributing to the group’s paramilitary characterization.
The name Operativa Yogurt gained wider attention following a May 2025 Mexican Navy operation in Huitzontla, Michoacán, in which authorities attempted to capture Ambriz Cano. The operation resulted in multiple CJNG casualties and arrests, while Ambriz Cano reportedly escaped. This event significantly increased the visibility of the Operativa Yogurt designation and its associated imagery.
