The Benito Juárez mayoralty is bolstering its security strategy, "Blindar BJ360°," to reinforce surveillance efforts throughout the summer vacation period. This enhanced operation will cover all 113 micro-districts within the demarcation, alongside key commercial corridors, plazas, and banking institutions. The primary goal is to safeguard residents' assets and provide a sense of security during their time off.

Mayor Luis Mendoza has called upon the public to actively participate in preventive measures and practice self-care before embarking on their travels. "We want families to enjoy this period with the certainty that in Benito Juárez, we work every day for their safety," Mendoza stated. He assured that the "Blindar BJ360°" initiative will maintain a constant 24-hour presence and response capability to address any emergencies.

Key recommendations for residents include thoroughly checking that doors and windows are securely locked, disconnecting electrical appliances, and shutting off gas and water supplies. The public is also advised against sharing travel plans on social media and to entrust their homes to a trusted individual. When using ATMs, prioritizing secure locations and electronic payments is encouraged, along with vigilance against unsolicited requests for personal or financial information via phone or untrustworthy websites.

For those traveling by road, the authorities emphasize the importance of checking vehicle conditions, adhering to speed limits, and refraining from driving under the influence of alcohol. The "Blindar BJ360°" base will operate continuously, seven days a week, conducting regular patrols. Residents can reach out for immediate assistance in case of any emergency by calling 800 0500 225.
