Castro came to power after the Cuban Revolution, which overthrew the U.S.-backed dictatorship of Batista,
The CIA failed to overthrow Cuban dictator Fidel Castro during the Bay of Pigs invasion in April 1961. The operation aimed to support a Cuban exile force in a military invasion to overthrow Castro's communist regime. However, the mission was poorly planned and executed, leading to a swift defeat of the invaders and solidifying Castro's power in Cuba.
