The Battle of Doctor Coss was an armed conflict in Mexico between the Gulf Cartel and the Cártel del Noreste faction of Los Zetas in the municipality of Doctor Coss, Nuevo León. The confrontation was one of the most serious in the region, disputed by both cartels due to their proximity to border municipalities of the neighboring state of Tamaulipas.[2]
