They included agents of the Federal Preventive Police (PFP), task forces of the Mexican Army and Navy, and special groups of the Federal Agency of Investigations (AFI). Troop movements began in the early morning hours when truckloads of federal police arrived and Hercules planes carrying troops also landed, thereby beginning the strategic invasion of the center of the city of Oaxaca.
