MexicoTUXTLA GUTIERREZ: Mexico has deployed additional troops to its border with Guatemala to bolster its fight against organized crime, largely drug-related, a military spokesman said Tuesday.

"Troops are being moved around all over the state (of Chiapas), and we are working with the state government to see if more permanent troops can be moved to the border," said Commander Salvador Cienfuegos.

He did not give a figure for the deployment to the southernmost state.

But he did say that there are currently a total of 14,000 troops in Chiapas and Tabasco together.
