The X post you linked from @CapLaloVargas
(an aviation-focused account) shows a chaotic video from Guadalajara International Airport (GDL), where people — including National Guard members in uniforms — are seen sprinting in panic, abandoning luggage and running through the terminal. The caption questions: "Aeropuerto de Guadalajara, no se ve bien ver a la guardia nacional corriendo o si?" (roughly: "Guadalajara Airport, it doesn't look good to see the National Guard running, does it?").This footage went viral amid reports of widespread panic in Jalisco state on February 22, 2026, following the confirmed killing of Nemesio Oseguera Cervantes ("El Mencho"), the longtime leader of the powerful Cartel Jalisco Nueva Generación (CJNG), during a Mexican army operation in Jalisco.Key context from the events:Official sources (including federal officials speaking to AP and other outlets) confirmed the army killed El Mencho in the operation.
In response, CJNG members reportedly set up roadblocks ("narcobloqueos"), torched vehicles, and caused chaos across Jalisco and nearby areas — a common retaliation tactic.
Videos showed smoke over Puerto Vallarta and panic spreading to Guadalajara's airport, with crowds (including passengers and staff) fleeing in fear of potential violence or shootings.
Some reports mentioned armed men entering the airport or related gunfire, though official statements emphasized that no direct shootout occurred inside the terminal itself — the panic stemmed from rumors, nearby incidents, and the overall volatile situation.
National Guard members running alongside civilians drew heavy criticism online (as seen in replies to the post), with people mocking their response and questioning their training/role in high-threat scenarios.
The chaos led to some flight cancellations (especially from Mexico City to Guadalajara) and temporary disruptions, but the airport eventually stabilized with federal forces deployed.
The thread from the same account includes follow-ups:More videos of uncertainty near the airport.

Photos and mentions of cancellations.
This incident highlights the CJNG's influence in Jalisco and the immediate ripple effects of taking down a top cartel leader — massive public fear, infrastructure disruptions, and intense online debate about security forces' performance.If you'd like me to dive deeper into any part (e.g., more recent updates, reactions, or visuals from related posts), let me know!
