History
1 answer:
natka813 [3]4 years ago
7 0
The answer is C. The CIA financed and trained a group of Cuban refugees or exiles to attack Cuba and topple the government of Fidel Castro. The attack was an utter failure. Though many of his military advisors indicated that an amphibious assault on Cuba by a group of lightly armed exiles had little chance for success, President Kennedy gave the go-ahead for the attack. On April 17 1961, about 1,200 exiles armed with American weapons and using American landing craft waded ashore at the Bay of Pigs in Cuba. Over 100 of the exiles were killed and 1,100 captured by the Cuban armed forces.
