The invasion of Cambodia by U.S. forces in 1970 aimed to disrupt North Vietnamese supply lines and reduce their influence in the region. However, it led to significant destabilization in Cambodia, contributing to the rise of the Khmer Rouge, which ultimately resulted in a brutal genocide. The invasion also sparked widespread anti-war protests in the United States, intensifying public opposition to the Vietnam War and highlighting the U.S. military's controversial role in Southeast Asia. Additionally, it strained U.S.-Cambodian relations and had long-lasting effects on the region's political landscape.
