Military planes and helicopters were deployed to help the casualties, it said.
President Claudia Sheinbaum described the deaths as "deplorable" and expressed solidarity with the victims.
Warring criminals in the region have a history of planting improvised landmines and attacking security forces with explosive-laden drones.
Several soldiers have been killed in similar explosions in the past.
Criminal violence, most of it linked to drug trafficking, has claimed around 480,000 lives in Mexico since 2006 and left more than 120,000 people missing.
