No, Nikita Khrushchev did not order troops to invade Hungary initially; the Soviet intervention was a response to the Hungarian Revolution of 1956, which sought to overthrow the communist government. When the uprising began, Khrushchev initially hesitated but ultimately decided to send in troops to suppress the revolt and re-establish control. This military action took place in November 1956, following the escalation of protests against the Soviet-backed government.
