An improvised land mine apparently planted by a drug cartel kills two Mexican soldiers and wounds five others.

Gen. Ricardo Trevilla said the army had already suffered six deaths from such improvised explosive devices.

He didn't specify whether those six had been killed by bombs dropped from drones, or by buried roadside bombs.

The Jalisco drug cartel has been fighting local gangs for control of Michoacan for years .
