Investigation in Guanajuato uncovers 17 bodies; five identified as missing

The Attorney General’s Office of Guanajuato, Mexico, confirmed the discovery of 17 bodies in an abandoned property in the municipality of Irapuato, as part of an investigation into missing persons.

Inspections took place over two days (May 23 and 24), and the bodies were found in various stages of decomposition, the office said in a statement. On the first day, 16 remains were discovered (11 men, two women, and three whose sex has yet to be determined).

On Saturday, May 24, with the support of heavy machinery and forensic archaeology specialists, authorities found another body on the property “in a state of partial skeletonization.” The sex of this individual has not yet been determined by experts, the office added. In the house, they also found four knives, five machetes, two pickaxes, four shovels, clothing, and footwear. The Attorney General’s Office explained that the recovered bodies were transferred to forensic laboratories.

Additionally, the Unit for the Identification of Deceased Persons reported that five of the victims had been previously reported missing, including four men and one woman. “These actions are carried out in accordance with due process, a human rights perspective, and close inter-institutional coordination,” the office said.

“The Attorney General’s Office of Guanajuato will continue its efforts to clarify the facts, locate those still missing, and provide clear answers to families,” the statement added.

Netanyahu cites historic success against Iran as he pledges relentless Gaza campaign

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu reiterated on Monday that Israel will not halt its offensive in Gaza until achieving its two primary objectives: the elimination of Hamas and the return of Israeli hostages still held by the Islamist group in the enclave.

“We have a mission to complete: the elimination of Hamas and the return of our hostages. We will not relent for a single moment. These are two interconnected goals,” Netanyahu declared during a visit to the headquarters of the Military Intelligence Directorate, the main intelligence arm of the Israel Defense Forces (IDF).

Netanyahu expressed full confidence that both objectives are attainable, referencing the confrontation with Iran in June as proof of Israel’s capabilities: “It was an enormous achievement of historic proportions,” he said.

“This combination of political leadership and military levels, and then the synergy between intelligence, the air force, and other branches — this combination delivered the result,” he added.

Hepatitis D declared carcinogenic as WHO urges action to end global crisis

Around 300 million people worldwide are living with hepatitis B, C, or D, and 1.3 million die each year — mostly from cirrhosis and liver cancer — the World Health Organization (WHO) reminded on World Hepatitis Day, urging stronger global action toward its eradication.

“Every 30 seconds, someone dies from severe liver disease or liver cancer linked to hepatitis — but we have the tools to stop this,” said WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus in a statement marking the day.

The organization also highlighted that the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) recently classified hepatitis D as carcinogenic to humans, joining hepatitis B and C, which were already confirmed as cancer-causing.

According to IARC studies, hepatitis D — which only affects individuals already infected with hepatitis B — is linked to a two- to six-fold higher risk of liver cancer compared to those infected solely with hepatitis B.
