The Bay of Pigs invasion in April 1961 was a failed attempt by the U.S. to overthrow Cuban leader Fidel Castro, which significantly heightened tensions between the U.S. and the USSR. The Soviet Union viewed the invasion as a direct threat to its influence in the Western Hemisphere, prompting it to increase military support for Cuba. This event deepened Cold War hostilities, leading to further confrontations, including the Cuban Missile Crisis in 1962, as both superpowers became more entrenched in their positions. Ultimately, the invasion underscored the dangers of U.S. interventionist policies and solidified Soviet-Cuban ties.
