Why did Kennedy call back the bombers for Cuban freedom fighters?

President John F. Kennedy called back the bombers during the Bay of Pigs invasion in April 1961 to avoid escalating the conflict into a broader war with Cuba and potentially the Soviet Union. The decision was made after assessing the situation and recognizing that air support for the Cuban freedom fighters was crucial, but the risk of direct U.S. military involvement could have dire consequences. Kennedy aimed to maintain plausible deniability regarding U.S. involvement while attempting to limit the conflict's scope. Ultimately, the withdrawal of air support contributed to the failure of the invasion.
