MEXICO. Sasabe. July 2024. On October 28, 2024, an all-out war broke out between drug cartels fighting for control of the town. Of Sasabe’s 2500 inhabitants, all but 20 fled the killing field. By July 2024, inhabitants had slowly begun to return. Tuscon Samaritan Gail Kocourek crosses the border on occasion to feed the towns starving dogs. Local resident whose first name is Yaile and who lives at the safer border junction, assists in the feeding.
