Cuba Repels Bay Of Pigs Invasion
Cubans defeat US-backed insurgents trying to bring down their government.
In 1961, a force of 1,400 Cuban exiles from the USA landed at the Bay of Pigs in Cuba with the aim of overthrowing Fidel Castro's government.
The insurgents landed with American support from the sea and air but were defeated by Cuban forces in just 3 days.
More than 100 of the insurgents died in the attack, and 1,189 were taken prisoner.
The failed invasion proved an embarrassment for the US government after their involvement was revealed.
