They're here, we're about half an hour outside of Culiacán, in the grounds of a half-built church.

They're looking for lost sons, lost brothers, who are victims of cartel violence.

Now the women are heading into some rough ground and fields beyond.

They have shovels, they have pickaxes, they have machetes.

No matter if it's to the ends of the earth, she will look.

They were asking for help at the incident.

Paramedics Julio and Hector have been called to another cartel shooting, but this one is different.

We've been following these paramedics for a week.

We've been to multiple call-outs with them.

This is the first time they've arrived at the scene and the person has still been alive.

Decapitating the Sinaloa cartel's leadership may yet destroy it, but for now, there is only violence.

Well, we're going to stay in the region for the next story because relations between Cuba and the US were already frosty, to say the least.

Now, Cuba says it's killed four people who were travelling in an American-registered speedboat off the Cuban coast.

The Interior Ministry said it was determined to protect Cuban territorial waters.

Our North America reporter, Simi Jolaosho, told my colleague Anne Soy what more we know.
