The U.S. invaded Grenada in 1983 primarily due to concerns over the establishment of a Marxist government following a coup that ousted the previous government. The invasion was also prompted by the perceived threat to American citizens on the island, particularly the presence of about 1,000 students at a medical school. Additionally, the U.S. aimed to prevent Grenada from becoming a base for Soviet and Cuban influence in the Caribbean. The operation, known as Operation Urgent Fury, aimed to restore a pro-Western government and stabilize the region.
