What was operation urgent fury?

Operation Urgent Fury was the United States' military invasion of Grenada that began on October 25, 1983. The operation aimed to overthrow the Marxist government of Maurice Bishop and restore a democratic government, following concerns about the safety of American citizens on the island and the potential for increased Soviet influence in the Caribbean. The invasion was relatively quick, lasting only a few days, and resulted in the capture of key Grenadian leaders and the establishment of a new government. It marked a significant moment in U.S. foreign policy during the Cold War.
