 Mexico says two US federal agents killed in crash were not authorized for operations inside country  Mexico’s government says two U.S. federal agents killed in a northern border-region crash were not authorized to take part in any operations on Mexican soil, raising new questions about their role in a cross-border drug lab mission. Authorities say the agents were returning from an operation targeting a clandestine drug facility in Chihuahua when their vehicle, traveling as part of a convoy, went off a ravine and exploded last weekend. Two Mexican officers also died in the incident. U.S. officials have confirmed the two Americans were CIA personnel, though their agency has declined to comment on the circumstances. Mexican officials say one of the agents entered the country as a visitor while the other used a diplomatic passport, and insist the government had no knowledge of foreign operatives conducting or planning any enforcement activity inside Mexico.

 Depot Fuel Prices Reach ₦900 per Liter Amidst Delay in Dangote Production


Depot petrol prices have skyrocketed to almost ₦900 per litre in key coastal locations across Nigeria. This increase is due to operational and supply issues at the Dangote Petroleum Refinery, which have put pressure on the distribution network.


An operations staff member knowledgeable about the situation stated that the refinery plans to load just a small number of trucks at the moment, as they await the conclusion of current maintenance activities and performance evaluations. “The refinery is operating at a reduced rate, and only limited loading tickets will be released until further notice,” a source said.


On Monday, October 13, 2025, market information revealed that Premium Motor Spirit (PMS) was priced between ₦870 and ₦900 per liter at major depots in Lagos and Calabar. This indicates a consistent increase over the previous week.


In Lagos, where the majority of private depots depend on imported fuel supplies, prices stayed high even after recent adjustments. Aiteo and Pinnacle set their petrol prices at ₦890 and ₦870 per litre, respectively, while Integrated Oil and Gas also sold PMS at ₦870 per litre.


In Calabar, Matrix Energy and Northwest Petroleum had fuel prices of ₦890 and ₦880 per litre, respectively, whereas Sobaz Depot reached a peak price of ₦900 per litre, marking the highest rate reported this month.


“If Dangote’s supply remains inconsistent, depot prices could easily cross ₦900 per litre in the coming days. Marketers are already rationing liftings because of high replacement costs,” a Depot Marketer said.
