The Mexico City International Airport (AICM) is under scrutiny on two fronts this week: a team of specialists warned that the interior of Terminal 2 presents structural risks, and authorities seized approximately 930 grams of ayahuasca extract at the airport on Tuesday.

EL NORTE reports that a team of specialists from various institutes, including the Autonomous University of Sinaloa (UAS), warned that the interior of Terminal 2 at the AICM presents structural risks. The report does not specify what prompted the warning, which buildings were assessed, or whether any immediate action has been taken by airport authorities.

Diario de Yucatán and El Financiero both report that Mexican authorities seized approximately 930 grams of ayahuasca extract at the AICM on Tuesday. The two outlets filed the same figure, but neither names the agency that carried out the seizure, the passenger or shipment involved, or whether any arrests were made.
