The Bay of Pigs invasion was a U.S.-sponsored operation aimed at overthrowing Cuban leader Fidel Castro in April 1961. The plan involved training and deploying a force of Cuban exiles to invade Cuba at the Bay of Pigs, supported by airstrikes to weaken Cuban defenses. The expectation was that the invasion would spark an uprising among the Cuban populace against Castro. However, the operation faced significant logistical issues and was met with stronger-than-anticipated resistance, ultimately resulting in failure for the invaders.
