Operación Limpiada was a greatly successful joint operation between the DEA and Mexican Federal Police forces. In the weeks and months following the mission, cartel influence was significantly reduced, and the majority of police forces were withdrawn from the province. However, the remaining local law enforcement proved to be lax and corrupt in their ways, and the Los Culos Sucios Cartel soon spread their influence and power once more.The cartel’s brutality and diverse range of corrupt operations have caused a major stir in Mexico City. This time, the Mexican Army will be deployed with the intent of destroying major cartel sites and occupying critical provincial infrastructure for good.

Restricted Spawn-campingYou and your faction are not allowed to stalk, surround, or fire upon the opposing faction's permanent self-respawn location. Likewise, they're not allowed to camp your permanent self-respawn either. However, self-respawn flags at forward operating bases are vulnerable to attack as described below.
Forward Operating BaseAfter the operation begins, each faction may establishing a forward operating base (FOB) at any of the following locations: Alpha Base, Charlie Base, Fort Harris, Jackal's Hold, Marsh Base, SGC, South Bridge, Tents, or Wolves' Den. To do so, they must place a special "FOB RESPAWN" flag that will serve as a second self-respawn pole for everyone in their faction. However, at any time, the opposing faction may come through and deactivate it by simply taking it down, but it is not allowed to be moved or hidden by the opposing faction. There is no limit to the number of times a FOB flag may be put up or taken down. Any live player on the faction to whom the FOB flag belongs may move it at any time throughout the operation, and there is no limit to the number of times it may be moved.
