Rebel Bombing Closes Many Mexican Auto Plants
GM, Ford, Chrysler, VW and Honda affected

A series of coordinated explosions severing oil and natural gas pipelines has idled much of the economy in central Mexico. General Motors, Ford, Chrysler, VW and (not stated in the article) Honda have had to temporarily shut down plants, generally for lack of natural gas. According to the Detroit Free Press, this bombing is the work of the Popular Revolutionary Army, a Maoist group which, unlike the Judean People's Front, is sometimes confused with the Judean Popular People's Front (splitters).
