The Obama administration started to fly more unarmed drones deep into Mexican territory to collect illegal drug trafficking information. The United States officials said that this plan would provide Mexican authorities to help manage illegal drugs passing Mexican territory to the United States. In fact, the drones had proved to be helpful when Mexican authorities used these drones to find several suspects linked to the Feb. 15 killing of Jaime Zapata, a United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement Immigration agent. According to the U.S officials, they are capable of peering deep into Mexico and tracking criminals’ communications and movements .This decision was, however, kept in secret, because of legal restrictions in Mexico and heated political sensitiveness regarding their sovereignty.
